Server was down, restored from backup

Andreas Raht · 11-16-2009, 10:58 PM

I'm sorry, but due to a strange disk drive and/or RAID controller failure we had to restore the server from the backup made on Sunday at noon MEZ.

We're still working on restoring everything, so there are still some sites and databases unavailable (for example OOTP development databases). Please be patient.

At the same time, we moved ootpdevelopments.com to another server which is much more powerful than the old one. And hopefully the RAID works as it should on the new one.

So is that what it means in the PBP line where it asks "got some RAID, anyone?"

Thanks, Andreas.

I was just trying attach a schedule file zip on a post, and it told me the process failed. There may be things still being worked out, and I am in no rush on this. I just wanted to throw that out there in case the issue was not noted yet.

To elaborate, it was an upload error. It gave a failure note in the popup window where the file is usually shown after the upload attempt.

Funny, Raid has always worked well for me.
