## Updates from DreamHost

We're performing rolling restarts across our VPS, Managed VPS, Dedicated, and MySQL database servers to apply important updates. Websites and services on those servers may be unavailable for about 5 minutes while their server restarts. Sites that use a DreamHost MySQL database may briefly show database connection errors during this time. No action is needed on your end. We'll update this post once the restarts are complete.

Restarts are complete for our Managed VPS and Dedicated servers, and we’re finishing up the remaining DreamPress and MySQL servers. Sites on those servers may be briefly unavailable or show MySQL connection errors while they restart. No action is needed on your end, and we’ll update this post once the remaining restarts are complete.

Our team is still working through restarts for the remaining DreamPress servers, and MySQL server restarts are nearly complete. Some sites may be briefly unavailable or show MySQL connection errors while the server restarts. No action is needed on your end, and we’ll update this post once the remaining restarts are complete.
