Performance update

Server performance has not been up to the usual high standards over the last couple of days. We have installed three new servers and should have them online in the next day or two. Most performance problems are now largely resolved – the web interface is still not as fast as we would like; in the next 24 hours that should be fixed as we bring a new backend server online.

Emergency reboot required

The system is undergoing an emergency reboot. Should be back in 5 minutes.

Slow web interface and mail delivery

We are currently experiencing slow performance on mail delivery, and in using the web interface. We are investigating the cause of this and hope to have it resolved shortly.

Short outage to upgrade switch

There will be short outage of a couple of minutes to upgrade one of the switches at our network provider

Server reboot completed

Reboot has been completed. Some services may be a bit slow for the next hour or so

Emergency reboot required

One of the servers requires an emergency reboot. This should take about 10 minutes. Some services will be down for the 10 minutes.
