[opensuse-announce] ftp/stage/download.opensuse.org hardware failure
by Adrian Schröter 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

I am sorry to inform you that we have currently a bigger hardware failure of the raid system, which provides the content of ftp.opensuse.org and stage.opensuse.org. As a side effect, also the redirector download.opensuse.org is currently down. This leads to error messages, if you have added any extra repositories in your openSUSE installation. We work on resolving this, but we have currently not the needed hardware to replace it. The raid will become available again tomorrow, if the night over express succeeds. Sorry for that adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-announce+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-announce+help(a)opensuse.org

The next openSUSE project meeting will take place at the official #opensuse-project IRC channel on freenode (irc://irc.freenode.net/openSUSE-project) on Wednesday: 2008/01/09 18:00 CET (17:00 GMT) For an overview what time this is in different timezones, use: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=09&month=01&year=2… This meeting is meant to discuss the latest developments in and around openSUSE. Please add your topics to the meeting wiki page at: http://en.opensuse.org/Meetings/Project_Meeting_2008-01-09 as soon as possible.
