As you may know, NGP VAN regularly performs general server maintenance by applying the latest Microsoft patches to ensure optimal system performance.
We will put your site into maintenance mode for approximately 10 to 15 minutes and will display a scheduled maintenance notification during this period. While interruption is typically limited to a quarter of an hour, we may need up to a full hour to account for contingencies.
Alerts in advance of these maintenance windows appear under in the Resource Center under For Your Information.
As mentioned in the last maintenance update, the next round of patching work will commence on Saturday, December 12; Sunday, December 13; and Monday, December 14 from 6 AM to 7 AM Eastern. We have confirmed this is the best time to complete this work across our platforms based on system usage while ensuring all nightly data procedures have run.
During this time, your Online Forms will be up and available to your supporters but attempts to submit the form may fail. Given the extremely short duration of the maintenance window, we expect that full functionality will return by the time most supporters are able to attempt a second submission of the form.
We sincerely appreciate your cooperation as we perform this maintenance work. We will reach out as soon as we have confirmed the January maintenance schedule.
As always, please do not hesitate to reach us with any questions or concerns.
