+title: [ANN] Server update: files.pharo.org on November, 13th
+layout: blogpost
+publishDate: "2024-11-08"
+
+
+We would like to inform you that we are currently setting up a new server to host Pharo files.
+Indeed, our current server reached its maximal storage capacity (500 GB) and we need to move it to another provider.
+The Pharo file server is used:
+- to publish new Pharo images and Virtual machines,
+- host Pharo Launcher files,
+- deliver Pharo images and Virtual machines for Pharo Launcher and zero-conf scripts,
+- and some other use cases.
+
+Next Wednesday, November, 13th, from 8am to 11am UTC: https://files.pharo.org will not be available!
+
+This shutdown is needed so that we can change the DNS to point to the new server, issue a new SSL certificate for this new server and some other actions. The new server may be put on line earlier if possible.
+
+Regards,
+The Pharo team.
