    Default Board Outage.

    Hi guys

    We have some failing hard drives in a server this site uses. We will have a few hours of down time tonight while the upgrade is completed.



    cheers

    Hi there

    We were down from 10pm until now, it's going to be a bit slow for awhile. If you notice any problems please email me or post here.

    cheers

    Thanks for explaining the mystery. The Apache "placeholder" seemed more drastic than ordinary database backup. And thanks for your diligent efforts too.

    Hi there

    That page was shown while we recovered data, this took a few hours unfortunately.

    We have another 20 minute outage planned for tonight, starting at about 10pm (EST). We should see some speed improvements after this.

    cheers

    Thanks Steven
    Normally after 12:00pm WST I give up on the board as it is dead. Tonight it is like grease lightning.
    Cheers,
    Rod
