web05 server high load (resolved)

Posted February 4th, 2012 by Robert Mathews in System Status. Tags: , .

The disk load on the “web05” server was extremely high between 2:30 and 2:42 AM Pacific time Saturday February 4, causing some downtime during that period for sites using that server. Other servers were not affected.

We’re investigating the underlying cause of this and will take appropriate action to avoid a recurrence. We sincerely apologize for the trouble if this affected you.
