Hello all,

I just became aware of a switch crash that happened around 1am last night. I was awoken by my UPS's kicking in briefly but thought nothing of it. This must have been when it crashed.

Sorry to anybody who tried to access the site during the outage. I am going to see why the switch crashes when the UPS's kick in and hopefully solve the issue some time soon.

I've been unable to access the site for a few days now. It times out regularly.

Nobody else has reported problems. Perhaps an ISP error?

thought it went down
obviously if there's only one server, eventually it has to go down..

anyway, noticing 100% CPU and near 100% RAM usage... related?

Not related, it happens sometimes. It was determined to be a switch problem because the site came back after a switch reboot, the servers weren't touched. I'm going to swap the switch out with my old router running in switch mode as that doesn't seem to crash when the UPS's kick over.
