Server Down: Hard Drive Failure.

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately about 24 hours ago the server's hard drive failed and was unrepairable. I've been working flat out to get the site back up and running and I've just this minute got things to somewhat of a working order.

There are many things to do. There will be many error on images. However, you can continue to post and reply. I will work in the background to recover the rest of the information and update you as I go.

The backup was from the 8th December so there maybe a day or two missing.

Kind Regards,
EM.

Hi,

Nice to see up and running again.

Did we lose some threads?
 
Glad to get back at least something normal. Appreciate your effort EM!

Can we run a cron job on a daily basis to take data back-ups, probably to another server would be much good.
 
one of the better ways to spend holidays - wrestling with technology ;-)

Thanks for the effort man.
BTW I am an Oracle DBA and UNIX admin by profession.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Cheers.
 
Keep up the good work, EM. I was beginning to get withdrawal symptoms ;)
 
All things considered a great job of getting things back up and running. We lose a little then so be it.
