Emergency Mirrors Maintenance

2021-09-27 19:05 PST: mirrors are back up, this downtime should be resolved. If you notice any issues using our mirrors please reach out to us at help@ocf.berkeley.edu.


We are currently (9/22) running emergency maintenance on mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu. Due to an earlier drive failure we've had to replace the drives. We expect the mirrors server to be down until Monday, but we will keep this blog post updated.

Intermittent service outages during summer break

The OCF is currently aware of intermittent service outages during the summer break to our OCF website, web hosting services, mailing services, mirrors, and internal infrastructure. Volunteer staffers have begun an investigation of the issue and are planning to resolve it in the coming weeks. Please expect delays in this process due to the limited number of staff available in the summer and other factors beyond our control. We will update this post once we have more information on the situation.

If you are a user or represent a group that has been adversely impacted by a recent OCF service outage, please do not hesitate to contact help@ocf.berkeley.edu so we can investigate further.

Update: This has been resolved.

Major Mirrors Outage

 We are suffering from a significant RAID array failure of our mirrors server and thus will not be able to serve any of our mirrors traffic. We expect this down time to last for at least another week while we bring up a new server to serve mirrors.

 

We hope you can understand that this will take longer than we would hope due to limited site access and reduced staffing over the summer.

Major web service outage

The OCF is currently investigating an ongoing service outage that has disrupted web services including our main website (ocfweb) and user-hosted websites. All other services, such as our login servers (tsunami), HPC, and mirrors, should be functioning as normal.

Due to the timing of this outage, our response remains limited throughout the early night. We will update this post once we have more information on the situation.
