Server2 is currently down as of 1:01 AM EST for a quick filesystem check. Our system administrators are ensuring it’s as graceful as possible.
Update: As of 2:12 AM EST everything appears solid, no data loss and everything should be good to go.
A test of our emergency broadcast system
We’re currently testing the system to see where this goes. Float!
Server5 has suddenly become unavailable and is being powercycled by the datacenter. We’ll have a complete investigation being emailed to any clients affected. The system appears to have locked up as of 7:43 AM EST.
I suspect the worst as far as hardware is concerned but it could be mere software glitches or an abusive user causing the issue.
Edit & Update: As of 8:02 AM EST the system is now fully available, we’ll be sending out a detailed email when the system has been fully audited.
De ja vu: March 4th, same time. The particular user responsible is being suspended on a permanent basis & this won’t reoccur, hopefully. We’ll bring in an additional system administrator to audit the server just in case there’s something we’re overlooking.
System should be back online momentarily.
"Prices are definitely not the lowest you can find around, but the service more than makes up for it. A few times I emailed in a question and I got responses in less than 10 minutes. Definitely recommended for anyone needing quality web hosting."
