FS outage

FS Novell file server needed to be rebooted.

CPU was at 1%, disk requests were very high. Initially there was console access, then that hung as well. Disk lights showed no activity even though disk requests were high. Sweep was not loaded.

Had to power off the server and restart it. All seemed well after that.

Novastor was reloaded, sweep was not.

FS server unavailable

Server FS was unresponsive, and utilization was high for one processor. Timesync was lost, and NovaNet couldn’t contact the database server. Busiest threads were “NN Sup 2”, “DB Monitor” and “Server 23”. The last file scanned by Sweep was at 3:03 a.m. The server appeared to be fine after rebooting. Sweep was not reloaded.

No other systems are affected by this outage.
