** Upgrading your Linode to KVM will remove it from this maintenance. **

Hello,
Linode recently received several Xen Security Advisories (XSAs) that require us to perform updates to our host servers. In order to apply the updates, hosts and the Linodes running on them must be rebooted. The XSAs will be publicly released by the Xen project team on December 17th, therefore we must complete the updates before that date.
These updates are required to protect the security and safe operations of not only our infrastructure, but yours as well. We understand that a disruption with such limited notice is inconvenient, and we hope you understand that these measures are warranted due to the severity of the XSAs.
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:
* 2015-12-14 7:00:00 PM UTC - Japan1
During the maintenance window Linode instances will be cleanly shut down while we perform the updates. Your Linode will be inaccessible during this time. A two-hour window is allocated, however the actual downtime can be much less. After the maintenance, each Linode will then be booted.
It is highly recommended that you ensure that services are set to properly start after a reboot before your maintenance window. You can consult our Reboot Survival guide[3] for more information on how to do this. After going through that guide, it is recommended to reboot your Linode at a convenient time to ensure your services come up correctly.
As previously mentioned, you can upgrade your Linode to KVM prior to your maintenance window to avoid the maintenance all together [4].
Please note that due to the logistical demands of this effort, your assigned windows are not changeable and the host reboots are mandatory.
For general information, please see our status post: http://status.linode.com/incidents/ngql6k6dm420
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to assist.
