Dear All,
I am advised to reboot all our CREST servers to fully apply the updated OpenSSL library. The new OpenSSL library was patched to RHEL 6 (RedHat Enterprise Linux 6) packages yesterday and they were installed on all the CREST server machines at around 10am Apr 8, 2014. (Note: all the CREST server machines are setup with RHEL6).
The OpenSSL bug is serious and we needed to take immediate actions. http://heartbleed.com
Even though our server seem to be safe with the new OpenSSL library now, I would like to make sure that there is no any leaking spots in our server machines by refreshing all the systems with the new OpenSSL library.
I would like to setup a schedule to reboot all the CREST server machines at 9am tomorrow (Apr 10, 2014).
Date: April 10, 2014 Time: 6:00am-7:00am Pacific US time 7:00am-8:00am Mountain US time 8:00am-9:00am Central US time 9:00am-10:00am Eastern US time 1:00pm-2:00pm GMT
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about rebooting our servers.
Regards,
