Recent Downtime
Posted on 11th October 2005, 16:36 by IBBoard
Apologies to everyone who has had problems accessing the site recently. Unfortunately it has been due to issues beyond my control.
Today, the hard disk on one of my host's name servers died. This meant that the majority of requests for the website failed because one name server was unavailable and the other was overloaded with all the requests that would have been split to the other one.
The disk has now been replaced, and everything is now working again. The disk is also the suspected cause of previous downtimes over the past week or so. Hopefully, now that the disk has been replaced, the server should be able to function properly until the host's migration to the new and improved data center.
Again, I am sorry for the inaccessibility, but it was beyond my control and was due to a major hardware failure.
