db2.slc1
Friday, November 12, 2010
Around 9:00 PM MST on November 11th, the shared database server db2.slc1 began to see rapid increases in disk utilization by the MySQL server. System administrators immediately began working on the problem and additional space was quickly provisioned.
Around 1:00 AM MST and again at around 4:40 AM, the MySQL server mysteriously began rejecting new connections. Though the problem has been temporarily resolved, systems engineers continue to research the issue.
We know that any downtime on our database servers can be extremely disruptive and we’re genuinely sorry about the outage. We’ll continue to update this site as we learn more.
