+Subject: Scheduled XVM Outage on weekend of July 20th
+
+Dear XVM User,
+
+There is a planned maintenance and upgrade of the XVM production hosts
+on the weekend of July 20th. The maintenance has been scheduled
+2013-07-20 12:00:00 EDT to 2013-07-22 06:00:00 EDT.
+
+As part of the upgrade, we will be migrating from Xen 3.x to Xen
+4.x. As a result, all virtual machines on XVM will be shut down for a
+short period of time over the weekend to prevent data loss during the
+VM migration. Once the VMs have been migrated to the updated hosts, we
+will restart any VMs that were previously running. Further information
+on the exact outage schedule will be sent out closer to the weekend of
+July 20th.
+
+It is recommended that you shutdown your machine before the
+maintenance window to ensure that the processes running on your
+machine terminate correctly. If you are no longer using your machine,
+we ask that you delete it before the maintenance in order to free up
+space for other users of our service.
+
+Sincerely,
+XVM Maintainers
