Maintenance Downtime Tonight
Hello all! Firstly, apologies for the hiccup earlier. A disk drive on our database server filled up completely, leading to an inevitable and spectacular crash. This happens because our database has gotten too large and needs to be trimmed down to size. Basically, this means moving older site logs to a backup instead of the main database.
While we would normally do something like this during our monday evening downtime window, I'm not certain the problem won't resurface before then, so I'm going to be performing this maintenance tonight at 1am Subeta time. I also need to resynchronize our database servers afterwards, so the whole procedure should take under 2 hours.
Again, sorry for any inconvenience, and wish us luck!

Thank you and good luck! I saw the screen and I instantly thought of before I'm like 'UH... NO. NO. /denial/' xD
Pfft. We all know that somebody just pressed the Big Red Button and is covering for it... :p
(Seriously, good luck with everything. A little planned outage is way better than a big unplanned one.)
