We will be undertaking scheduled maintenance of our servers on Friday 2 April 2010 between 00:01 and 02:00 BST. The expected outage will be less than 15 minutes although it is hoped that scheduling this during the early hours of a bank holiday will mean that minimal impact will be felt.

A major power failure affected the data centre at 1407 this afternoon. Power was restored to all servers by 1515. This was caused by a faulty power board and now been replaced.

This weekend we will be performing our regular integrity check of the backup servers, files and disks. Limited services will be available during this time. Once the tests have been completed we will force all backups to complete. You may receive warnings for missed backups during this time if the servers are unavailable when your backups normally run. ***** UPDATE 22/11/09 00:00 ****** All tests were successful and full service is available again.

Due to a major outage at our Interconnect in London our phone system currently cannot receive inbound or outbound calls on all 0870 numbers. This is also affect the conference calling facilities.

We are currently investigating a rogue web application that is cauing 100% processor utilisation on server UK3 - former 1uhosting web server. It is causing random hanging of between 30 secs and 5 minutes. We are working to determine which website is causing this and resolve it as quickly as possible.

Email was very slow through the ex-1uhosting.net mail server - mail.server365.net. This was due to a denial of service attack against this server and a major influx of SPAM. We are currently reducing the queues and mail should start to be processed normally. The queues have now been cleared and normal operations have been resumed. An upgrade the the anti-spam filters is being performed this evening in an effort to stop this happening again.

Emergency updates have all been successful and all services are fully operational. The outtage overran due to a critical failure on one of the iSCSI storage devices and a VM host server. Regards Lushsoft Support
