I hope this isn't a stupid question... but why was this done at 5PM?
I found out in a very brutal manner that something is wrong with my BGP set up...
The maintenance has completed, and everything appears to be returning to normal.

It is the MICE core. I would be willing to move it to 5PM CDT, however I would want the board to give their blessing since it was already announced for 4PM

Correct, any port number starting with 3/ is on the card.

In troubleshooting the 100G line card, Arista has requested that the line
card be power cycled. Being that there is a possibility that the line
card would not recover from a restart, I am working with Dave @ the UofM
to have a spare available in the event that the card fails to restart. I
plan on blocking BGP to all ports on the card before restarting the card.
Based on the current state of the card, I am unsure that it will block BGP
properly. I plan on restarting the card tomorrow at 4PM CDT. In the past
I have noticed that the 100G cards take a long time to boot up, so I would
anticipate a minimum of 15 minutes of downtime if everything goes
perfectly.

I wanted to let everyone know that we are experiencing an issue with the
100G linecard on the MICE Arista core switch. The card is currently
outputting errors and not detecting new optics. I am currently working
with Arista to troubleshoot the issue. At the moment any 100G upgrades
would need to be on hold until the issue is resolved. All established
connections seem to be working fine. I will report back as soon as I have
more information.
