Hello,
Linode has received a Xen Security Advisory (XSA) that requires us to perform updates to our legacy Xen host servers. We must complete these updates before April 4th. For general information, please see our status page post below:
https://status.linode.com/incidents/1ph54f4nnmd6
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:
* 2017-04-03 4:00:00 PM UTC
These upgrades do not affect KVM Linodes. The time sensitive nature of this XSA means that your maintenance windows are unchangeable. However, if you upgrade to KVM, you can take the upgrade at anytime before the scheduled maintenance, and avoid this maintenance altogether.
KVM also has lots of other benefits. Performance is generally better, and we recently announced free RAM upgrades, new plans, and new datacenters that are all KVM-only:

We highly recommend you take this opportunity to upgrade to KVM. To do so, click the 'Upgrade to KVM' link in your Linode's Dashboard. Please reach out to our Support team about migrating and upgrading your Tokyo 1 Xen Linodes to Tokyo 2 KVM Linodes.
During the maintenance window, your Linodes will be cleanly shut down while we perform the updates. Your Linodes will be inaccessible during this time. A two-hour window is allocated, however the actual downtime should be much less. After the maintenance, each Linode will be returned to its last state (running or powered off).
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to assist.
