If you worked for them you wouldn't have the time to relate stuff back to the community though. You'd be too busy getting the servers running :)

I've had my share of fixing electronics in the military. I'll stick to my main skillset which is gathering, deciphering, and reporting information back to the people who need it. It would be great to actually be able to do that in English. If I have to hear or read anymore Arabic than I have to now that I am a civilian, I will go crazy

Blade Servers are designed to stay running if one blade goes out, so this does not account for everyone being booted this week or last. sorry another spin job!

For this particular issue, swapping server blades was required, which is the reason it took a bit longer than we would have liked. At first, it seemed like a simple reboot would solve the problem. When that didn't help, we had to call in a larger team to take a look. Anyone that knows about server engineering knows that doing an entire blade swap is not something you want to do before you've ruled out the simpler options! So once we did that, the ops guys swapped the blades and all was well. :)

Here is the quote for what happened last weekend.

We are back up and running - confirmed by the team! Thanks guys.
