15:40PM The server Lannister has to be shut down in 20 minutes in order to replace a cooling fan which has failed.
The fan must be replaced urgently to prevent overheating of the server and to avoid the possibility of data loss.
16:00 Lannister has been powered down
16:05 The faulty fan has been replaced
16:06 Server is booting up now
Websites will be slow for the next 20 minutes or so as everything settles down. Thank you for your patience.
9:50PM We’re working hard to mitigate a DDOS targeting two sites on this server. Sites on this server will be unresponsive until the attack has been stopped.
10:20PM Almost there, we’ve stopped 90% of the attack, now blocking the last sources.
10:33PM Things are almost back to normal. Server iowait is a bit high, so sites will be a bit slow until that is resolved. Thanks for your patience, and apologies for this inconvenience.
21 September 2:50PM
Server Bumblebee 156.38.146.98 is offline. Technicians are investigating.

3:26PM The problem has been fixed, and the server will be booted up shortly
3:37PM Still waiting for the server to be booted.

We’re working to mitigate a DDOS which is preventing the server from serving sites successfully.
8:46 PM
The DDOS has been mitigated. Apologies for the inconvenience.
12:55PM The server Baratheon will be rebooted within the next 10 minutes to address a software error. We expect downtime to be no more than 30 minutes, unless the server requires a file check on startup, which could take up to 2 hours. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.
13:16PM The server has booted successfully, and services are returning to normal. Websites will be slow until the server load drops over the next 10-20 minutes.
10:50AM Apache on Lannister is encountering an error, and is not serving any websites on this server. We’re working on the problem.
10:57AM The problem has been fixed, and Apache restarted. All websites should be functioning correctly now.
14:00 Greyworm is currently offline due to a DDOS attack. We’re working on mitigating it.
14:17 We’ve null-routed the target of the attack, and this seems to have stopped the DDOS. Unless another site on this server is targeted, the server should now run normally. Please accept our apologies for this downtime.
17:15 Hetzner is currently experiencing a routing issue in the Samrand data-centre. Connections to some of our servers hosted in that data-centre are affected. Hetzner engineers are working on the problem.
17:28 The problem has been resolved.
