Update 2: Maintenance 04/03 / downtime

Earlier today, during the planned maintenance an issue arose that affected our database master server. We had to do another unannounced emergency shutdown for another 15 minutes or so to fix the issue.

This should not have happened and I apologize for letting you down today.

I was thinking the same thing.

"Letting you down today?" I didn't realize I had a 15 minute SLA in my mobileread service guarantee. Gee...do we get some sort of monetary compensation....?

It gave me the chance to enjoy an extra doughnut. Pretty spiffy new shinies, by the way, Alexander.

This must be part of the server transfer to Amazon.

You need to stop using MySQL and start using MS-SQL2008 or Denali ...

Just kidding, a DBA joke!

Heh. Before we'd do that, another big time hardware upgrade would be necessary.

Come on ... This is not an online casino at Saturday evening. This is a wonderful community and extremely well maintained server.
15 minutes of unplanned downtime every couple of years is nothing.
