Unplanned maintenance - 28 September 1.30am

Notice Posted at 1.30am

We had routine maintenance planned for midnight where we were maintaining one of our backup servers.  The tech has encountered some issues that we were not expecting and we may need to reboot some servers in a little while.

Update at 1.50am

Some servers are undergoing an fsck file system check and this is unavoidable unfortuantely.  Three servers (one shared and two servers belonging to clients) are still undergoing fsck checks due to the large volume of files.  All other services are up and working normally.

Update at 2.04am

We are awaiting a report from the tech to determine what happened but it appears to be power related and isloated to one cabinet containing some of our servers.  Only one cabinet was affected.  The tech was on site moving some new backup hardware into the cabinet that was affected and we are yet to determine if his actions in moving new backup servers into the cabinet caused these issues.

Update at 2.19pm

The fsck has completed on the three remaining servers and all servers located in this cabinet are now up.

Sorry for any inconvenience
