Downtime

May 3rd, 2005

Well… you may or may not have notice that the server was down for the last couple weeks. Obviously the server move didn’t go as smoothly as planned. After getting everything up and running on the new hardware weird things started happening and the server response time slowed to a crawl. As per Aidan’s recommendation everything was backed up to do a fresh install — and good thing too. I don’t know how much longer it would have lasted on its own, but during the reinstall the server hard drive died – with quite a show too. Thankfully there is no (apparent) corruption on the backup drive – and thanks to Mike for providing a new 60GB hard drive – and Aidan for rebuilding it, the server should be 100% now.
