[Karsten Wade]

The irony here is palpable ...

What's the plan or blocker on migrating off this Linode instance?

Hello,

Linode has received a Xen Security Advisory (XSA) that requires us to
perform updates to our legacy Xen host servers. We must complete these
updates before November 22nd. For general information, please see our
status page post below:
https://status.linode.com/incidents/6lqznlfwlv1r

Your Linodes have been assigned a maintenance window in which a reboot
will occur. These times are listed within the Linode Manager[1] in the
timezone set in your user's My Profile[2]. Your schedule in UTC timezone
is as follows:

 * 2016-11-21 12:00:00 PM UTC - linodeXXXXXXXX

Upgrading to KVM will allow you to avoid this maintenance entirely. You
can use the “Upgrade to KVM” link in your Linode’s dashboard to move to
KVM. Please note that KVM upgrades are not available in Tokyo at this
time.  More KVM upgrading information can be found here:
https://www.linode.com/docs/platform/kvm-reference

We strongly recommend you read through our Reboot guide, which will help
you prepare your Linode for these reboots. After going through that
guide, we recommend you reboot your Linode at a convenient time to
ensure your services come up correctly. The Reboot guide is available here:
https://www.linode.com/docs/uptime/reboot-survival-guide

During the maintenance window, your Linodes will be cleanly shut down
while we perform the updates. Your Linodes will be inaccessible during
this time. A two-hour window is allocated, however the actual downtime
should be much less. After the maintenance, each Linode will be returned
to its last state (running or powered off).

Please let us know if there is anything we can do to assist.
