Subject: Server downtime
Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2023 20:52:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <21D85929-0210-41C1-B146-EF0813E19DCF@bittext.nl> (raw)
Hi all,
Many of you have noticed that https://wiki.contextgarden.net and https://www.ntg.nl are down, as well as all the mailing lists at domain ntg.nl, and a few less obvious websites like source.contextgarden.net and modules.contextgarden.net.
The ntg.nl/wiki.contextgarden.net server’s disk (raid) controller crashed so badly that we did not trust it to come back up in read-write mode, so we had to rebuild the disk setup as read-only and then copy its revived data to a different machine that we also still had to configure. This is a complicated and slow process, unfortunately.
Our apologies for the long down time!
As of now, we at least have working emails for the mailing lists again. Tomorrow we will try to get the simple websites back up. We hope to at least be able to restore www.ntg.nl, wiki.contextgarden.net, and the mailing list web interface. Getting the email subsystem back up was the main priority today.
More news later (sometime tomorrow)
All the best,
Taco (also from Robbert and Jules)

Dag Allemaal,
Velen van jullie hebben gemerkt dat https://wiki.contextgarden.net en https://www.ntg.nl onbereikbaar zijn, evenals alle mailinglijsten op domein ntg.nl, en een paar minder voor de hand liggende websites zoals source. contextgarden.net en modules.contextgarden.net.
De schijfcontroller (raid) van de ntg.nl/wiki.contextgarden.net-server crashte zo erg dat we het niet vertrouwden om hem terug te laten komen in lees-schrijfmodus, dus moesten we de schijfconfiguratie herstellen als alleen-lezen om vervolgens zijn nieuw leven ingeblazen data te kopiëren naar een andere machine die we ook nog moesten configureren. Dat is helaas een ingewikkeld en vrij langzaam proces.
Onze excuses voor de lange downtime!
Vanaf nu hebben we in ieder geval weer werkende e-mails voor de mailinglijsten. Morgen gaan we proberen de simpele websites weer aan de praat te krijgen. We hopen in ieder geval www.ntg.nl, wiki.contextgarden.net en de web-interface van de mailinglijsten te kunnen herstellen. Voor vandaag was het heropstarten van de e-mail faciliteiten de eerste prioriteit.
Later (ergens morgen) meer nieuws
Al het beste,
Taco (ook van Robbert en Jules)
