FTP Locks

resolved

Description

We applied a potential fix to the FTP lock problem late yesterday evening. If your FTP lock is taking longer than 10-15 minutes to release, please contact support to notify them of the domain name in question.



FTP locks are currently taking longer than usual to release. They are working, but the reaction time from changing settings in your 34SP control panel to the desired effect is unfortunately taking upwards of 30 minutes.

We are aware of this issue and we are working on a fix.

Thank you for your patience during this time.

Delays in sending email

resolved

Description

Mail queues are now sufficiently low on the majority of servers to warrant lowering this issue to the 'monitoring' status. We will of course continue to closely monitor our SMTP servers for now.



We are currently aware of delays to mails sent using some of our SMTP servers. This is affecting a small number of customers. Our engineers are working on this and we hope to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Server7 Maintenance (server7.xenserve.com)

resolved

Description

All checks completed and we're now happy to resolve this status.



Server7 is now back up and running after what was quite an extensive file system check. A routine check of all databases is currently being performed.


It has become apparent that server7 is in need of some file system maintenance and this unfortunately requires us to reboot the machine. We hope to have server7 back up and running as soon as possible.

We thank you for your patience during this time.

VPS2 Down (vps2.34sp.com)

resolved

Description

This status is being resolved as VPS2 has performed satisfactorily over the last week. Nevertheless, we have taken the decision to begin migrating VPS' away from some of our older hosts and will contact any affected customers in due course. Any customers that wish to be migrated early are welcome to contact us ahead of time.



VPS2 is finally back up and running. All VPS' have been started and a snapshot is being taken of each VPS in case there are further issues. (Which may see a few minutes pause per-VPS as the backup is sychronised.)

Any customer that wishes to have their VPS migrated away from VPS2 should e-mail support@34sp.com with the request and we will attempt to process this as quickly as possible.

At this point we wish to thank our customers on VPS2 for their patience throughout this issue.

VPS2 will remain in a 'monitoring' state, until we are satisfied with its performance.


We can only apologise for the continued outage of VPS2. At present we're still working on the disk file systems and will continue to do so until further notice.


The Engineer has arrived at the data centre and a full file system check is running on VPS2. This will unfortunately take an unknown length of time to complete.


As of approximately 5 minutes ago, VPS2 has gone down and all customer VPS' are currently unresponsive.

We are currently doing everything in our power to return this machine to working service, however this does involve waiting for an Engineer to arrive on-site.
