Unforseen downtime yesterday
Posted: Sat Sep 16, 2017 10:37 am
Yesterday we had an thunderstorm at HQ that knocked out the power for about 30min. It also knocked out a fiber-optics switch at our ISP and that took a wee bit longer to fix.
But a good friend helped us host a backup server so total down time was only for 3.5hrs. our ISP manage to replace the faulty switch at around 19:30 local time, after that i think we were back on the main server an hour later or so.
But one good news is that our new database performed like a charm, it did not crash as the old one so a big thumbs up for that, now unforeseen stops due to database errors may bee in the past finally!
