*Subject: *Re: [AFMUG] Notifying customers
the overnight maintenance windows are starting to suck. I didnt know id
get old this fast where staying up past 2 am sober means im asleep til
at least 10 am. ive moved a lot of that to saturday mornings instead of
overnight where feasible. We rarely send out a long term prior
notification unless we will see an extended outage. Notifications
trigger the "ever since X nothings worked" calls too, one of the
downsides. you check the graphs, theyve been down since a week before.
then you troubleshoot and they have everything plugged in backwards, but
of course they didnt mess with it, thats how our techs installed it.
the phone message weve changed for years, I like that because you get
the caller ID log, but no direct interaction with the customer since
most hang up once they hear the message. It gives you a targeted list of
impacted accounts to verify.
love or hate facebook, it generates revenue. since we went live,
probably 10 percent of new customers are generated from it. I
dont understand people who hate something so much they wont take the
money or garner higher customer satisfaction levels.

Planned maintenance:
Commercial Dedicated - We send out a notice about 1 week ahead of time,
then at the start and completion of the event.
Residential - If it's going to be more than 5 minutes we post to
Facebook a day before and put a notice up on our phone system. If
it's
going to be less than 5 minutes (e.g. rebooting an AP) we don't do
anything.
All of this work is scheduled in our 2-4am time window and we have a
fair amount of redundancy. Unless what we are doing is affecting the
access equipment normally it doesn't take anything down.
