We had the opportunity to finally run an important disk and RAM upgrade for the main Gna! server and took it. We are sorry we could not plan this better in advance.

Obviously it look longer than planned and funny network problems popped out roughly at the same time. The total downtime ran from 5:50 PM to 4:10 AM (CEST time).

We're back online we new and larger RAID1 arrays, larger RAM. Daily (remote) backups are independent and are still working fine.

Thanks a lot to Sébastien Bocahu for its fantastic support at the datacenter. Let's have some sleep now, happy hacking for everybody.
