Unfortunately we didn't get this completed tonight and will have to
pick up on it tomorrow. During the upgrade one of the hosts failed to
get passed its POST process, the host in question is the bastion
server which routes all traffic to the cloud and is our jump host for
access to the other servers. We'll be picking up on it tomorrow when
other members of the lab team are available to assist.

Thanks and sorry for the extended disruption,
Derek.
