Sorry about the outage - Aquarium Advice

fishfreek · 01-27-2006, 08:18 AM

The outage that lasted approximatly 8 hours was caused by the main disk filling up on the server. We store our backup files there and as you can expect a single backup of our site takes several gigs of storage. I usually purge only but the last few weeks worth of backups but it had been nearly a month since my last purge so it filled up at midnight when the backup process starts.

No problem...well, felt kinda empty there for awhile. Just glad to see AA up and running.

I wondered too. Glad it was something that was easily fixed!
