Another outage today

[MM 6,562]

About 6pm I was informed that there was a problem editing posts. I tried to edit the post and discovered there was a problem with the database tables for the forum messages.

 

I then took down the web server and started a recovery process. Little did I realize it would take 4+ hours. Anyway, about 20 minutes before it would have finished, I had to go to FLB to listen to an audition for a new female singer (she's really pretty good). I then got stuck in the bar for 2 hours until I managed to high tail it to the room and check the recovery. Seems it succeeded. With fingers crossed, I brought up the web server again and it seems okay. Anyway, 2 hours of the outage was me hanging out at FLB. Sorry to the rest of you. Believe me, I felt guilty.
