Emergency maintenance: SV8 Hard Disk failure
Posted by on 03 June 2014 02:55 AM

We have emergency maintenance on SV8 because of hard disk failure. Entire /home partition suddenly becomes unreadable.



We try to run disk check but there are too many errors that it is not possible to fix. The hard disk turns to read only mode shortly after restarting the server. As a result we have to transfer all websites to a different server. Transfer process takes longer time than usual because of slow disk IO on the failing HDD. Transfer is 90% completed and should be finished at 06/03/2014 4AM EST. If your websites are hosted on server SV8 and use default nameservers ns1.premiumdns.net ns2.premiumdns.net, you do not need to do anything. Please open support ticket if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.
