My blog disappeared yesterday due to issues with MediaTemple’s rather troubled maintenance. This offline moment kinda caught me by surprised. MediaTemple announced an Electrical Systems Maintenance and I didn’t really read carefully what it’s about. I thought it’s some power supply maintenance actually.
…(gs) Grid Container issues are resolved leaving one final issue which is BlueArc.
BlueArc engineers have been in our data center for the last 8 hours undergoing their project to upgrade three of our Titan disk systems which combined power the storage for Cluster.1 and Cluster.2 of the (gs) Grid. During the post-upgrade reboot of one of the BlueArcâs components failed (storage shelf) which kept Cluster.2 from rebooting completely.

I’m on their cluster 2 or what they call “Grid.Cluster.2″. Someone probably reprogramed their space bar to return a period or something.
Well, if you’re interested in ordering services from MediaTemple, consider putting me as your referrer. I’ll really appreciate it. Entering coupon code “surfstation” without quotes will entire you a 15% discount. They’re pretty good except for this longer-than-expected maintenance which annoyed me for 10 hours or so…
