| CatastropheStrikes! Hello everybody,
Unfortunately as of sautrday morning around 9:00AM the website has been down. This is due to a hardware failure with the hard drive. I am in the process of backing up all the data now. The two main databases that hold all of the teachers grades are of course corrupted.
The good news:
-Should be up sometime late tonight.
-Brand new hard drive/new operating system install
-All user database information has been saved.
The bad news:
-Delay during prime weekend for classes.
-Might need to roll back teacher grades database 2 months to latest backup.
-Ruined my weekend.
I'll admit, I think it's about time I let the professionals start managing my server. There are problems though because GCP goes through 3-8 gigs of traffic, and it does lots of unique things. It may be possible, but only after converting a lot of my code/databases to different formats. I will look into it for the summer because this downtime is unacceptable.
Sorry all, I will post details as they arise here. |
