Site outtages - 11/28

[Steve St.Laurent]

I apologize for the site outtages tonight. Today at our host facility they added a couple new servers to the rack that our servers are in which overloaded the power on that rack causing the circuit breakers to pop. They have run a cord to our servers from another rack as a temporary fix. Hopefully it won't be going down any more tonight. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Yeah, I was wondering what was going on. It's been going on for about 2. 5 hours for me. My connection keeps timing out, and when it does go through, it's really slow.



Thanks for staying on top of things and keeping us informed Steve!

Oops - have been scrambling to figure out what's going on, get them back up, etc. I banged that post out pretty quick - obviously too quick

Things are running a bit slow right now. I need to do a database repair but the site will be down for about an hour when I do it so I'm waiting until later tonight to do that. I'll probably take the site down around 3-4 am which is when traffic is the lowest to do it.

Ah, that explains the problem last night. Glad you got it figured out.
