Update at 23:00:16(BST): Throughout the evening we have been moving the recovered data from business3 to new accounts on business7. All users now have accounts recreated on this server, plus any data we could recover has been moved too.
The final stages are now underway which requires some DNS updates.

Update at 23:29:02(BST) :Attempts to restore the server have failed. We are now in the process of recovering as much data from the server disks as possible. Due to the amount of data and the nature of the failure, this is expected to take a significant amount of time, at least into 12/08/10.
Once we have recovered as much data as possible we will be beginning further restoration efforts. We will also be emailing all affected clients with a detailed update during Thursday.
