The forum disappeared for a few hours from last night to this morning.
Was it just me, or was there a problem ... or scheduled maintenance?

Re: Who pulled the plug out?
Not just you, I couldn't access the board this morning.
However . . . we had pretty horrendous storms down here (AK's near Swindon, so if his ISP is anywhere close, that's only 15-25 miles away), with flooding and power-outs. We (Newbury) lost power for an hour yesterday evening, and some of the area was out when I left home this morning.

Or it could be a coincidence

Your 'standard' is how you drive alone, not how you drive during a test.

This says the various data centres/servers were up ok. Multi routing should have dealt with any local issues.

Re: Who pulled the plug out?
Yeah, I had issues overnight/this morning too (both from home and work). Shrugs. Maybe Alistair should up the subscriptions if you want a SLA

You'd pay 50% more than you do now, wouldn't you?

Re: Who pulled the plug out?
Apologies guys - you were all meant to be asleep
scheduled maintenance from c. midnight to 4am by my technical guys, with some quite detailed restructuring of where things are in the datacenter...
for some reason a number of servers didn't go back up again (they probably forgot to plug them in!)
Thanks to a member on here who texted me to let me know (our usual monitoring system tells me if a server goes down, but can't tell me if it fails to go up after a planned outage...)
amazingly not a single one of my paying clients seemed to notice that their websites weren't back up
Talking of which I like the idea of doubling my fees - form an orderly queue over here...
for interest our servers are in a very robust and fail safe datacenter in Manchester - but this was probably human error!
