Hi,
At around 00:15Z we started receiving alerts regarding some servers
on host "elephant". Looking at the machine's console it was
reporting errors with its SAS controller, and was generally
unresponsive to anything requiring block IO, so I had no choice but
to power cycle it.
On boot I couldn't find any issue with its SAS controller, and it
was able to find all its storage devices and seemingly boot
normally. The last few customer VPSes have finished booting as I
type this.
I will keep an eye on things for the next few hours and let you know
about further actions. Please accept my apologies for the
disruption.
This is unrelated to the problems with "elephant" last month which
were tracked down to a kernel bug.
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,
A few days ago someone asked if we would match a 5% discount that
another hosting company offered to developers of significant open
source projects. After thinking about it for a bit I decided we
would.
So, if you are a registered Debian/Ubuntu Developer, Fedora
maintainer, BSD committer etc etc please feel free to email
support(a)bitfolk.com and ask if you qualify. When you do, please
provide some sort of link to your work so we can verify it.
