<div dir="ltr"><br>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">We are doing some security work on this environment with 2 primary consequences:</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<ol>
<li><span>We need to make a backup of the database and index because </span></li><li>Part of the security work will be running a scan for vulnerabilities that will in all likelihood add data that makes the application fail. </li></ol>
<div dir="ltr">The secondary consequences are </div>
<div dir="ltr">
<ol>
<li><span>Data entered by staff tomorrow morning might not get backed up and therefore might not get restored. <br>
</span></li><li><span>As well, the application as a whole might become unavailable at some point during the application scan if this is the case, it will remain unavailable until the database and index are restored. </span></li></ol>
<div dir="ltr">I’ll keep you updated on this email list as and if things change and/or when things are available again </div>
