GOTH.NET was down for a few hours last night due to a RAM upgrade (I doubled the amount of RAM in the server). This should make it run a little better, as it was tending to use a lot of swap before, causing things to slow down.

While this was happening, one of the drives failed, so there will be another outage probably tomorrow (or Thursday latest) to have the replacement drive inserted. Luckily, GOTH.NET is setup with RAID, so it can tolerate the failure of one of it's hard drives without data loss.

The hard drive has been replaced. There were some other issues due to an upgrade I did just prior to this upgrade. These have been resolved now.

The system will be slow probably for the next day or so while it reconstructs the raid array onto the new hard drive. But once this is complete, it should be better than ever (with double the RAM )
