AlbHost Service Status - Notice history

Dear Customer,

We will be performing emergency maintenance today at 23:00 (11:00 PM) on our KVM virtualization nodes to apply a critical Linux kernel security patch (CVE-2026-31431 – “Copy Fail”).

This vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges to root on affected systems and impacts most Linux distributions.

This update is required to ensure the security and stability of all hosted virtual machines.

Impact:

• Brief downtime/reboot of your VPS during the maintenance window

Action required:

• No action is required from your side

We apologize for the short notice and appreciate your understanding.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact our support team.

Kind regards,
AlbHost Team.

Dear Customers,

As part of our ongoing infrastructure upgrades, we will be expanding our internal and external network capacity by an additional 100G. This maintenance is scheduled for Wednesday, April 29th at 11:00 AM (CEST).

To complete this upgrade, a controlled restart of core routing infrastructure will be performed. During this window, a brief service interruption of approximately 15 minutes may be experienced.

All systems will be closely monitored throughout the maintenance, and services will be restored as quickly as possible.

We appreciate your understanding and continued trust.

AlbHost.

Dear customers,

we would like to inform you that there will be maintenance works on a transport line to Amsterdam on April 24, 2026. The maintenance was announced on very short notice and is being carried out to improve future stability.

The maintenance will take place between 00:00 and 06:00 (CEST), with the actual maintenance period expected to last no more than 2–3 hours. During this time, packetloss and reduced bandwidth availability can be expected. We will steer more traffic during this time via our Frankfurt network PoP.

As you may know there was already a maintenance around one month ago on 20.03.2026. As announced earlier, there will soon be a new network PoP in Duesseldorf, Germany (Digital Realty). Remaining construction works for the new redundant darkfiber connection to the new network site at Digital Realty Düsseldorf are almost finished and completion is still planned for May. Once this new network PoP is operational, the impact of such maintenances can and will be completely avoided in the future. We sincerely apologize for the fact that this maintenance is taking place again prior to the implementation of the new network location.

We appreciate your understanding and continued trust.

AlbHost.
