VSaaS 1808 - Production Release re-schedule to 03/23 instead of 03/24 for Large Database customers

[Sany-Said]

Hi Everyone, 

Just wanted to send an update to those customers with a Large Database size, that we were able to negotiate your migration/upgrade dates to Saturday March 23, instead of Sunday March 24th.  I know this was a big ask from the team, and most of you are starting to get your official communication regarding this as well, so hopefully this helps in your upgrade planning.

Hi Stuart,

Yes, its a 24 hour downtime, although your data center might kick off at 11:00pm Friday rather than 00:00 Saturday.  Your official notification should contain that detail.
