Front end node sms-sagat has suffered a hard drive failure causing its RAID array to temporarily run degraded. An engineer has been appointed to carry out the replacement, but at this point we do not have a confirmed time.
At this point we can confirm there has been no data loss and backups are being performed offsite more frequently to ensure a level of redundancy for any customer data stored on this machine.
The server will need to be powered down for approximately 25 minutes during the replacement.
Sms-sagat is the front node for our network (all internal/external traffic is filtered through this server), as a result, there will be network-wide downtime affecting all customers
UPDATE [Friday 7th May 17:19]
The replacement has now been scheduled for Monday 10th May 8:00am > 9:00am. Between these hours, ALL services will be unavailable.
