[Wikipedia-l] Wikipedia unscheduled downtime over

Tue Mar 18 10:53:14 UTC 2003

Wikipedia was down for almost two hours, from 8:36-10:22 UTC.

There was a kernel panic related to the filesystem driver; I'm not
entirely clear how this came about, but once that happens it stops
liking to talk to the disk, which is obviously somewhat problematic. ;)

The machine is rebooted and running smoothly again (big thanks to our
very own Jason Richey!)
