In some cases, these updates might terminate existing network connections to your clusters. If that happens, the outage is typically less than 30 seconds. Be sure your applications are configured to automatically reconnect when connections are interrupted. Most modern database libraries do this by default.

If you want to control when the updates are pushed, you can specify a weekly maintenance window for each cluster or each data group in the case of an extreme-high-availability cluster. BigAnimal displays a *scheduled maintenance* message on your cluster list four hours prior to the scheduled maintenance time to remind you of the upcoming maintenance window. This reminder allows you to make any necessary preparations, such as saving your work and closing any open connections. For more information on specifying maintenance windows, see [Maintenance](/biganimal/latest/getting_started/creating_a_cluster/#maintenance).
