Server/DevZone Outtage
Hi,
As you may have noticed our services have received some outtage. This happend during a maintenance that was required for needed security updates related to CVE-2015-0235 (the glibc story / http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/01/27/9). When we rebooted the server the most scary thing happend for us. Our server did not return online. After some help from our hosting provider we managed to log back in.
To make the most out of this situation we immediatly also starting converting some of our local containers to a diskimage format (PLOOP / https://openvz.org/Ploop/Why). However because one of our main containers which has all the HG repositories has so many small files this conversion is taking longer then expected.
We want to apoligize for this situation and are waiting for this container conversion to finish. After this the most critical containers should all have been converted and most of the other ones are related to non-development stuff that should have no extended downtime like this.
Regards,
^Spike^
