The following is the transcript of a Subeta News Network special report from the front lines of the war against squirrels:
Database server 2 sustained heavy damage today when squirrels overran a disk array controller, forcing technicians to update its firmware.
Fortunately, no civilian data was harmed, as database server 2 was operating solely in backup capacity at the time.
However, the recent squirrel attack will result in a 15-minute downtime window tonight beginning at 1 AM Subeta time, in order to repair the broken link between the database servers.
Programmer alx announced the downtime earlier today, as well as hinted that new tactics are being deployed to hopefully win the war against Subeta's squirrel population once and for all.
That's all we have at this time. Thank you for listening to Subeta News Network!

Awesome way to let us know what is happening to our home away from home. I am tuned into Subeta News Network awaiting further updates.
No squirrels in Australia, though our possums would possibly very close. Just a whole lot bigger!! They get into everything, break, destroy and get up to their fair share of mischief. Lets hope the squirrels don't know about these guys!!

Can't we bribe the squirrels with enough nuts to sick 'em on another site? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> And I've always laughed at my husband when he said they're out to get us... He quotes the Geico commercial for proof, where the squirrels plot to cause that guy to wreck... Maybe ya'll could get some cats to chase them away? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

I love how things like this get shared on this site and turned into a funny tale for all of us to read. Thanks for keeping everyone informed and as much as I hate the site going down... those sqls are so cute <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> Only on subeta would a site issue be turned into such a cute item.

LMAO!! Thanks For The Laugh This Was Such Funny News!!!! I Mean I Am Sorry The Servers Are Going Down But What A Great Story!! Made Me Laugh Anyway.. Thanks I Needed It!! Good Luck On Fixing Things..

-salutes- Good Luck!
Well, I guess I can shower since Subeta has been consuming my life since I found it a whole three days ago... I suppose I should thank the squirrels for helping me get my life together again.
Are you sure you didn't leave a can of nuts near the servers!? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> Crazy squirrels...
