We are rebooting XN11 and XN14 tonight as per the earlier email to patch against a driver issue affecting two servers yesterday.
Updates will be provided here throughout.
XN11 (Done)
8.00PM – Going down for restart now
8.04PM – Small issue related to the BIOS on the machine, sorting now
8.06PM – Server is booting now
8.10PM – Server is up and starting rolling restarts of VPS now
8.24PM – All VPS have been restarted and should be up. Please be aware the RAID array on this machine is now doing a verification and I/O wait will be a little higher than usual until this completes. Shouldn’t be more than 30mins
XN14
8.35PM – Going down for restart now
8.39PM – Server is up and starting rolling restarts of VPS now
8.49PM – All VPS are up and we are going through them individualyl to ensure they are on the correct kernel + the matching kernel modules are copied inside VPS’s.
9.15PM – There are about 5 VPS left to restart
9.20PM – All VPS have been restarted and should be up. Please be aware the RAID array on this machine is now doing a verification and I/O wait will be a little higher than usual until this completes. With this being a larger server it will take a few hours for the load to settle and the RAID verification to complete.
