| We've been unable to stabilise the load on this server due to what has been found to be a hardware fault. We're provisioning new hardware for this server and will update you shortly. Best Regards, Karl |

| This server is being taken offline to swap the RAID card which appears to have developed a fault. |

| We're still replacing hardware components of this server and hope to get the server back online and stable soon. |

| We have moved the drives to a different chassis and the server is back online but still quite sluggish. Due to us already having replaced most hardware components on this we are now looking at migrating the data to a new machine. Sites should be online at this time but may be a little slow. |

| In a more positive update, it appears that the slowness after boot at the time of my last reply was due to the RAID array rebuilding and this causing overall speed to slow down. With this complete the server is much more responsive and behaving normally. With this in mind, we are monitoring the server closely and may not need to migrate data to another new machine. However, just in case, we are prep'ing a new machine now so in the event things take a downward turn, we can progress with the migration straight away. In summary, for the moment we're classing this as resolved but will continue to monitor it and update this announcement later once we know for sure. |
