Unscheduled Downtime

Post by Themicles »

The servers are down so that I can investigate an issue that appeared to have started around 4am this morning.

I will post here when I bring them back up.

The server was found to have run out of hard disk space due to the backup software not properly deleting it's oldest backups.

I have cleaned things up, and freed up space on the hard drive elsewhere.

I've also tried some different settings on the backup software that should prevent it from ever bloating until the hard drive gets full. We'll see...

Servers will be down for a time (Unknown at present) for cleanup.

This has resulted from automatic server backups filling the hard drive - this has also caused the lag over the last couple of days.

After the servers go online, if you find unknown characters in your servervault please post on a seperate thread (To be put up in the near future)

Thank you for your patience and co-operation.
I think, therefore I am right. QED.
