Regarding the StorNext upgrade, we have to modify the time schedule as follows:

SPEC start: 01/26/2021 8:00 a.m. end: 4:00 p.m.
MPG04N start: 01/26/2021 8:00 a.m. end: 4:00 p.m.

Downtime of the storage manager: 01/18/2021 untill 01/21/2021

For upgrading managed filesystems (fs using tape) the storage manager has to be stopped from 01/19/2021 till 01/21/2021; during this period of time no tape retrieves can be done.

All other scheduled times remain unchanged.
