FYI we encountered some major hardware failures on our server # 2 today, and when tech support looked it is we started noticing a rapidly deteriorating hardware problem on the main drive. As the problem appeared to be escalating...we decided to shut the server down and move the data from our backup drive over to a new server that is twice the size of the old server. We are currently 45% thru doing a total restore of data from our backup drives onto the new server, and we hope to have things fully online again by tomorrow morning.
Thanks for your patience....we will be back online on a new server by tomorrow.
It is factm of life that servers and their drives are like old light bulbs or batteries......i.e. after 3-4 years....they are nearing the end of their life cycle and start to fail and or die.
This is why it is so important for webmasters to have good daily backup routines to backup your files every day......cos you never know when hardware will fail on you.
