WORK IN PROGRESS
We are soon going to be working on an internal restructure of our nodes and services to further improve reliability and make serviceability easier, while making sure everything is up to date and ready to go.

While working on reintroducing RO1, the SATA connection has started failing again. While working with the location admin we have come to the probable diagnosis that it is not easily fixable. We are still working on it.

Monitoring on 4 Oct 2026 13:44:51 (UTC+00:00)
After a deep cleaning of the physical server and temporary replacement of the drives, RO1's drives are in normal operation again. We have put back the original drives after the admin had manually checked them in an external closure and after fixing filesystem errors.
RO1 is now considered ready to be reintroduced in the node pool, and we are actively working on that.

Identified on 4 Oct 2026 12:09:44 (UTC+00:00)
We have worked with the location admin into tracking down the issue, which is either SSD failure or SATA link failure, both which are physical issues. The location admin is now investigating and fixing the physical issue, so it is out of our hands.

Scheduled on 2 Oct 2026 09:59:04 (UTC+00:00)
Some services have been migrated off RO1. We are unable to migrate other services, however the rest are mainly internal so they will not have an impact. The location admin has responded and they will look into the issue later today.

Update on 1 Oct 2026 20:03:55 (UTC+00:00)
We are migrating still core services which were being hosted by RO1 onto other nodes such as UK1. The location admin is currently not responsive.

The location admin is still unavailable, so physical investigation of the drive links isn't possible yet. The drive link has failed completely so we were forced to fully shut down the node until fixed. In the meantime we are migrating core services which were being hosted by RO1 onto other nodes such as UK1.

In the process of bringing RO1 back online the drive connection has fallen and I/O errors are preventing us from restarting the services. We will get in contact with the location admin ASAP to analyse and fix the connection.

We have determined that with the fixes we implemented, RO1 can be taken out of maintenance.
We are finishing up work on RO1, and we are estimating for it to be done in max a couple hours.

RO1's disks now are reporting as clean. We are doing a final assessment to see if we can take it out of maintenance for now.

One of RO1's drives are suspected to be failing.
The backup from RO1 to UK1 is complete. We are now looking into fixing the problem remotely.

One of RO1's drives are suspected to be failing.
We are currently taking a full snapshot of RO1's drives onto UK1. It is currently 50% done. This is sadly taking a lot due to there being a lot of data with not a lot of bandwidth.

RO2 is down. on 4 Oct 2026 12:08:02 (UTC+00:00)
In progress
We are aware of the downtime of RO2. This does not affect any of our public or core services.
The downtime is due to a physical networking issue, and the location admin is working on fixing it by the end of the day.

We have fixed the resource exhaustion issue, however due to that many of our services are now in a bugged state. We are restarting those services so that they are in a proper working state, before we consider this issue finished.

The resource exhaustion was due to many playwright containers taking up all the RAM. We have removed those containers and we are actively looking for the creator of those containers as they keep respawning.
