Hardware failure

Earlier today the defence force servers were offline for a while: The power supply of the main server failed, as well as the battery backed up unit.

I'm not sure if there's a link between the two failure, or if there is which one triggered the other, but in doubt I moved all the disks from the server into a second server I had available "In case of", and unplugged the UPS.

I'm currently waiting for a new UPS to arrive, let's hope there will be no power cut in the mean time.

By the way, next month will we celebrate 20 years of Defence Force being online :)

I just received the UPS unit, will try to get all that reinstalled cleanly during the weekend.
