Michael D. Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 The file system on our Hermes server needs to be checked as there are some inconsistencies being reported in the system logs. These inconsistencies do not mean that we have to bring the server down immediately (i.e. it's not an emergency at this point), however, if the server is rebooted for any reason the server will force a file system check that we will not be able to skip. We do not anticipate this happening, however, we will email all affected clients if the server does have to be restarted for any reason resulting in an unscheduled file system check. At this point we are scheduling the file system check for Sunday, September 25th, at 3 AM EDT and we expect the process to take no longer than 3 hours. Actual downtime should be in the 30 to 60 minute range, however we have scheduled a larger window in case more work is required than is expected. If you have any questions at all about this scheduled maintenance, please do let us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael D. Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 The server has been running the file system check for about 15 minutes so far. We estimate approximately another hour on the check assuming all goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael D. Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 It's been approximately 29 minutes - The check is right at 2/3 done and should be done in about 15 to 20 minutes as long as a second pass isn't required.

Michael D. Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 A second pass is required, and we will update this thread with an ETA as soon as we know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael D. Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I'm going to provide an ETA of approximately 1 hour at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael D. Posted September 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 The server is back online, and will likely be a little sluggish for 10 to 20 minutes while it catches up and stabilizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
