switch and router.
Impacted services include:
IDD data delivery

Web services

..basically we are going "dark" for about an hour.
This will occur at 5:30 MDT and persist for about an hour.

Unidata has implemented a "back-up" cluster to help provide uninterrupted
service.
The hostname of the front end of the back-up cluster is:

iddb WILL stay up during this outage as it is located on a different switch.
Below is the official announcement:
