RunningAHEAD is currently down. I am working with the data center to troubleshoot. It might be hardware failure, in which case it'll take a few days to replace the part.

Everything is back up. Turned out one of the network connections was taken offline after the restart. Took several hours working with the data center to track it down.

One of the disks failed, which caused the server to stop for some reason. After the reboot, things came up, but the data center messed up the networking. I'm waiting for them to fix it and hopefully it'll be back up again.

Looks like the RA servers are down. I'm working with the data center to troubleshoot.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

It took a while but everything should be up and running again. I'm sorry for the outage.

https://t.co/PB2fBkNznR is currently inaccessible. I'm investigating it and will provide updates as soon as I have them.

Looks like the hard drive array had died. I was trying bring up the secondary servers but hit a snag. It'll take me a little while to get everything going. There is no data loss. I'll explain once everything is up.

Looks like the problems RA has been experiencing is due to a failing hard drive in the database server. I'm working on switching to the backup database server.

Data center has moved the server but it's not coming up correctly. We're currently troubleshooting.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

Service has returned to normal. Will provide details in forums soon.

RA is currently inaccessible. The load balancers are taking over the external IP address in rapid succession. I'm troubleshooting it now.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

I'll provide a full report on RA once the dust settles.

The data center has finally restored connectivity to RA's servers. You should be able to get to RA at most within an hour.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

The data center is fixing the problem now. Hopefully RA will be available again in about an hour.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

Finally heard back from the data center. They are rewiring their internal network, and it affected RA's connectivity to the world.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

RA is currently down. The primary servers are inaccessible. The data center is looking into the problem.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

The network problem was resolved. All services are available again.

[RunningAHEAD.com @RunningAHEAD]

RA is inaccessible due to a network problem within the data center. We are troubleshooting it.
