Server and System Status

NC018: Web server restarted

We have restarted the web server and are keeping an eye on it, specifically the sources of traffic to it.

NC018: Web server down

19 June 2014 06:57:04 +0000

We have taken down the web server while we investigate an overload condition. We will have it back up as soon as possible, and will post further updates here.

Email and other services on server NC018 are not affected.

NC027: Maintenance complete

15 March 2014 19:53:18 +0000

Server NC027 was brought back online at 19:43 UTC. This maintenance has been completed successfully.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact NinerNet support. Thanks very much for your patience while we upgraded the resources on this server.

NC027: Maintenance update

15 March 2014 19:33:23 +0000

The server was taken down for maintenance at 19:23 UTC. The maintenance is underway at this time.

We will post an update here as soon as the server is back online.

NC027: System maintenance

13 March 2014 10:38:17 +0000

We will be upgrading server NC027 over the weekend to increase its capacity. This maintenance will take about 40 minutes, during which the server will be completely inaccessible. However, incoming mail will be spooled on sending systems, and will be delivered when the server comes back up. No email will be lost or bounced.

Here are the details:

  • Start of maintenance window: 19:00 15 March 2014 UTC
  • Length of maintenance window: 1 hour

While the length of the maintenance window is an hour, the actual length of the maintenance should only be about 40 minutes sometime during that hour. If either the maintenance window or the length of the maintenance should change, we will post updates here.

To convert the above time and date to your time zone, please visit the World Time Server website.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact NinerNet support. Thank-you for your patience while we work to improve the service that we offer to you.

NC018: Investigation findings

8 March 2014 00:57:23 +0000

The web server on server NC018 sustained a denial-of-service attack between approximately 14:00 and 18:00 UTC on 7 March. This is why websites on this server were unavailable during this period. No other services (email or nameservers) were affected.

We have implemented improved monitoring of this activity on this server. Additionally, we are in discussions with the data centre to move this server to an improved network infrastructure, a move we hope to implement before the end of March.

We apologise for this disruption.

NC018: Web server outage

7 March 2014 18:22:18 +0000

We have had reports that the web server on server NC018 was down in the late afternoon UTC. We restarted the web server at 18:07 UTC and it is up right now.

We’re looking into this and will report back here shortly.

NC026 maintenance postponed

16 December 2013 04:52:35 +0000

The control panel upgrade on NC026 has been postponed until later this week or next weekend pending resolution of some pre-upgrade issues. We will post updates here.

Thanks for your patience.

Server maintenance: NC026

14 December 2013 00:18:07 +0000

We will be upgrading the control panel software on server NC026 over the weekend. The exact timing will depend on a number of factors, but we will endeavour to do it during a quiet period and we’ll post an update here with as much lead time as possible. During the upgrade websites on the server should remain online, but the control panel itself will not be available. This down time should be brief.

This status page will remain up during the maintenance, so please check here for updates. Thank-you for your patience.
