Right now I don’t know if the problem is fixed or not. I’ve got the BB’s back online for testing only.
The server has been running since 10a.m. this morning my time so I spent 8 hours backing it up in its entirety in case I have to move to a replacement box.
Worst case anything posted between now and when it crashes for good will be lost.
I do have an automated incremental backup which runs every morning at 10 my time but this is not a complete backup (obviously, as a full one takes 8 hours). So theoretically the only data loss would be anything posted between the last incremental backup and crash time.
So right now I am just leaving it up to see what happens.
Server company has already given me a ‘spare’ server for 3 months so if I do have to move it should only take me a few days. If that does happen I’ll put the redirect to my message that’s been there the past few days back on again, but if it crashes while I’m asleep I can’t do much until the a.m.
