Servers start to shut down on auto-protection due to over-heating :-(

Thanks mate, our tech teams both here and in Europe are pretty on the ball.

We have a robust set up.

Sounds like an exciting evening

The sun's gotta shine even on a dog's ass somedays. Shit happens.

Well evening for the Dutchies, morning for us Downunder. And then for the tech guys .. I just drank coffee and waited for them.. he he :winkwink:

But it does underscore a good plan and systems in place for crisis management.

Our mirrors had just kicked in as the primaries came back up, so we were covered, and in many cases around the place there was no service interuption at all.

A good plan, excellent systems and practices and an AWESOME team pays off in spades when the proverbial hits the other proverbial. :winkwink:

:thumbsup

You calling me a dogs ass mate?

He he
