Maintenance Microsoft SQL instances servers

Urgency: Planned
Affected services:
– Microsoft SQL instances
Expected impact:
– Microsoft SQL instances will be unreachable for a period of time
Customer intervention required: No
Reference number: 208235

Summary:
We will update the OS on both servers hosting the Microsoft SQL instances. As a result, there will be two moments during which the SQL instances will be inaccessible.

Details:
During the maintenance window, we will install the necessary OS updates on the servers running our Microsoft SQL instances. We will temporarily move the SQL instances over to the standby server so that we can restart the active server. Once the active server is back online, we will move the SQL instances back. We anticipate a maximum downtime of approximately 90 minutes for the SQL instances during this transition.

SQL instance backups that would normally start during the maintenance will now be manually started after the maintenance has been completed.
