[SOLVED] Emergency Maintenance on Mag1

Dear Customers,

As some of you already have noticed, the server mag1.properhost.net has experienced problems during the last 4 hours. In this post we will like to update you on the current situation.

This is the situation:

Around 8:00 PM CET, the server had to be taken down to replace a faulty motherboard, which caused lack of air flow in the server. The fans were running far from their optimal levels, and this could have caused serious damage to the CPU and other vital components if not had been taken care of immediately. A new motherboard was installed, and the server was brought online again at 10:00 PM CET only to fail again after a few minutes because of an issue with the BIOS which had to be upgraded/re-flashed.  Our administrators are still working to get the server back online as soon as possible. During this time, your sites may be accessible from time to time, but intermittent service disruption will likely occur.

We are terribly sorry for the inconvenience caused by this, and we apologize that some support tickets may have taken a bit longer than usual to get a reply because of the increased requests due to these problems.

If you have any questions, please open a support ticket or email support@properhost.net.
