Just a quick follow-up to
say that the bugzilla historic data recovery process
is complete. Some bugs were irrecoverably lost and
they will have to be re-found and re-submitted, but overall the loss was relatively
minor. Several changes have been
made to our systems to prevent such a loss from happening in the future. One side effect of this is that bugzilla will be down for maintenance for about 10 minutes
once per day at around Ken -----Original Message----- We suffered a rather catastrophic
failure of the Bugzilla database today.
Yes, things were going so well.
We are working on recovery, but this will take some time, and will
probably be ugly. During this
process, you can continue adding new bugs to bugzilla. These bugs will have a number of 1300 or
greater. New bug submissions will
be addressed, as will all bugs that have been submitted. All historic information in Bugzilla
however, including recent history, is lost for the time being. In short, the status of all bugs in the
system will be incorrect, and there will be a large number of missing
bugs. We apologize for the
inconvenience this will cause everyone, and are working hard to get the
historic data back. If you have a
question regarding the status of a specific bug, post to support and
we’ll try to get your question answered the old-fashioned way. Ken |
