Please be aware that the Family Search Indexing site will be down for up to 48 hours beginning on Monday, March 7th at 11:00 p.m. At the very least we should not plan to download or submit Indexing Batches all day on Tuesday March 8th and quite possibly into Wednesday the 9th. We will pass along information on the blog as it becomes available.
The reason given for this downtime is the high number of Indexers working on the system causing slow download times. Family Search is upgrading the hardware to accommodate the higher workload.
Note that you can download up to 10 batches to your computer and work 'off line' over the downtime and then submit the batches when the server is back up.
Please phone me at 801-737-4787 (home) or 801-645-4238 (cell) if you have any questions about this scheduled downtime or working off line during this time.
