S.G. UWC errors update

Posted on September 27, 2020 by SilentGround.org

Unfortunately, the UWC server is having issues with several drives, which will need to be replaced. We have yet to see, how much data that needs to be recovered. For now, all S.G. Elite downloads from this site, are unavailable until further notice. A backup solution is being worked at as well.

S.G. UWC CRC errors

Posted on September 25, 2020 by SilentGround.org

Our UWC server, hosting remote desktop instances and several S.G. Elite services is currently experiencing a lot of CRC errors. This is likely due to a failing hard drive. Services will be taken down temporarily to make the server ready for testing and possible repair. It’s RAID setup should prevent any data loss.

S.G. Status Site
We have added an additional update site, to make it easier for members to navigate.

Server Upgrade #3
Of course nothing much went according to plan. The PHP configuration remains broken on the new server, hence why the site is throwing a bunch of errors at all our users. There is little to do about it in its current state, so we will be issuing an emergency fix tomorrow on December 31st. Without […]
Server Upgrade #2
The forum is scheduled to be taken offline tomorrow at 5 AM (GMT) / 12 AM (EST). The downtime will most likely be in the 2-3 hours range overall if nothing major is happening. Of course we can’t foresee the unexpected, but hopefully everything will be alright. You can keep an eye on this site, […]
