[COMPLETED] Hardware replacements on Vega and Phoenicis

[Staff 9745]

UPDATE 14 Nov 2012: All the hardware replacements have been fulfilled. Both Vega and Phoenicis can be used now.

Hello!

After we detected various issues, an hardware inspection on Vega found a defective Hard Disk Drive. The HDD has been replaced and from now on Vega should be back online without any of the problems which afflicted it in the last weeks. Please do not hesitate to contact us in case you note any issue on Vega.

Phoenicis has some deep hardware problem that can't be currently located by the datacenter technicians. These problems cause a deep crash randomly (total freeze), making the server unreliable for a long term connection. As a consequence, we'll move Phoenicis Hard Disk Drives to a new server in the same datacenter. The name of the server will remain "Phoenicis" but the IP addresses will change. The operation is expected to begin very soon. We'll put Phoenicis down and all the clients will be disconnected.

Phoenicis will reappear on the servers list after the migration is completed and after all the tests on the new machine will be passed.

Kind regards

WARNING: the migration process has begun. Please disconnect as soon as possible.

Kind regards
