Hi guys
Today We recived an email from The server Owner:

Dear customer,
We've experienced a major outage today caused by a a faulty raid card.

All customers on OVZ2 were affected.

We kept our local backups on the same array, all data is lost, although we may still have old offsite backups of your vps.


They lost all their date and used an old backup and now we are in 03/2008

We will try to Remake the forum again. so if you see anything absent in the fortum POST IT here and we will make it work again...

Regards and Thanks for your comprehension...

We Recived an email from The date center:
We've sent the array do a company specialized in those kind of repairs, we should receive an update late today or tomorrow morning. Although there're no guarantees, it will depend on what's exactly damaged, if only the MBR or also the stored data.

So tomorrow we will see if the forum will be restored or we will work with the Old mobilecastle
We lost 60.000 posts + more than 50.000 members

Hope it all goes ok


this site is the best, and ive been on a lot of similar sites

We just recived another email from the date Center
Dear customer,
As you are aware, the recent events caused a long downtime and data-loss.
We sent the raid array to company specialized in data recovery, although the damaged MBR caused the raid array to be rebuilt overwriting the existing data. The data recovery company was unable to recover any 'good data' from the blocks on the array.

"Backups
If we do have backups available for your files that you need restored, and if we have the ability and time to restore the file(s), there will be a fee for restoring the files. we've restored the backups from Mar-May (Depending on the server).

We're deeply sorry for this incident and we're setting up two offsite backup servers, soon a new feature will be available on our customer portal regarding it.

Once again, sorry for the cause trouble, we're doing everything to avoid this in the future.
