The IRIS webserver and Sympa database server will be patched and rebooted into a new kernel. Total downtime for both services should be less than 30 minutes.
Any mail sent to a Sympa mailing list during the outage will be accepted as normal, but wont be delivered until the database is back online.

Server patching went smoothly and the IRIS website and mailing lists are back online.
Total downtime was less than 10 minutes.
