Kernel Upgrade Postponed

     A kernel upgrade for all of eskimo.com’s services scheduled for August 17th at 11pm PDT has been postponed until August 24th because kernel 5.19.2 came out this Wednesday after I had already built and partially deployed 5.19.1.  5.19.1 contained only three very small fixes so did not require extensive testing but 5.19.2 contains far more significant changes and many so there is a much greater potential for instability to be introduced.  And one day is really too tight to deploy to all the machines so going to shoot for next Friday instead in order to give it time to soak and to deploy to all the machines.  5.19.0 has both performed extremely well and been stable so there is no real incentive to get this upgrade pushed out quickly.
