Sorry for the downtime

4 years and 10 months ago April 03 2007 Blogging

Right after the move, the power supply in one of the new servers died. Unfortunately, the database was also running on this server and I didn't have mirroring set up yet. It required a physical trip to the data center, but we recovered the data and failed over to the second server.

The first server is back up on a borrowed power supply. We have have ordered a replacement, but this shouldn't require additional downtime.

Sorry about this... hopefully you've at least noticed the speed improvements. The site should be snappier now - and we can get back to writing good content.
