This week’s downtime and errors were because of a failing hard drive, which was detected on the 9th. It affected two of my sites – this one and the Stargate site – and lots of others hosted in the same server. It was an old one, so Gertie decided to replace the server, and we are now hosted in the brand new server.
I’m sorry I couldn’t get here earlier to let you know what was going on – for the first I couldn’t get to either of my sites for about two days. Then during the transfer from the old server to the new server, the old server crashed, so Gertie had to stop in the middle of transfering all the sites and fix it again before she could continue (that’s why it took several days to finish), and I just decided to stay away from the sites to avoid putting strain on the old failing server on my part. So I couldn’t post what was going on here. I posted about the problems on http://www.crystalfires.net which is my main domain and always update-to-date with what’s going.
I have had a look around and looks like we didn’t lose anything and everything seems to be working as it should. Let me know if you notice anything amiss!
