Impending FG downtime, probably Wednesday

by **yanpa** » Tue Jan 22, 2013 3:10 pm

Just a quick warning - the FG server is feeling unwell will and need to go to the server hospital for a hard disk transplant; that will probably happen at some point on Wednesday afternoon, so FG will be offline for a couple of hours. I'll post more details when I know more than I do now.

UPDATE: downtime is scheduled to begin around 18:00 on Wednesday, FG will probably be offline for an hour or two.

Geez I've seen some good ones but 3 1/2 years is no slouch, she probably needs the rest. Scratching my head to think what an "as new" hard drive is haha.

Yeah... 3.5 years without kernel upgrade is quite a feat...

I have been out of the game for a few years now but I believe some don't need reboot anymore. I'm guessing though this was a case of if ain't broke don't fix it.

Exactly... I've had far more broken servers to deal with in the last 3.5 years...

Server has returned from hospital and is back up and running
