Emergency Maintenance

During emergency maintenance scenarios, our primary objective is the rapid resolution of the issue at hand. We commit to informing our customers about such emergencies at the earliest opportunity, with the timing of communication being carefully calibrated according to the incident's severity. This approach ensures that our focus remains firmly on swift resolution, while still keeping our customers duly informed as the situation progresses.

Deployment Guidelines

FileWave Server

  • Major/Minor Version Upgrades: These upgrades are to be scheduled during the Special Maintenance Period. Customers will be notified one week in advance of the scheduled upgrade.
  • Patch Version Upgrades: Depending on the severity of the fix, these upgrades should be scheduled either during the Special Maintenance Period or announced as Emergency Maintenance. Notification to customers will be given as soon as possible.

Infrastructure

  • Non-Emergency Changes Causing FileWave Server Downtime: These are to be scheduled within the Regular Weekly Maintenance Period. No separate communication will be issued for these changes.
  • Emergency Changes Causing FileWave Server Downtime: These changes can be scheduled at any time, with notifications to customers provided as soon as possible.
  • Changes Not causing FileWave Server Downtime: These can be scheduled at any time and do not require prior communication with customers.
