Our downtime for the forums today was caused by a failure of an electrical switch that provides power to our co-location facility -- the place where our computer servers are housed. Because our servers are located in different racks at the facility, most of our servers were actually not impacted by this switch failure. Unfortunately, the community server was not among them.
The switch has been replaced, and all power has been restored. Our apologies for the downtime. Best, DocJohn __________________ Don't throw away your shot. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
