At approximately 21:04 UTC Tuesday November 21, our vendor Linode detected a failing disk on the hardware that runs our web, telemetry, source code control and Echolink servers and began to effect emergency data protection operations. AMSAT's Engineering
department is clearly working hard, because within 10 minutes they alerted the AMSAT IT department that they were having trouble accessing the server that holds the source code for our satellite projects. Meanwhile Linode proceeded to "evacuate" our servers
from the failing hardware, and migrated them to new hardware. All services were restored by approximately 21:20 UTC and the servers appear to be happily settling in to their new home.
There is no sign of any data loss, but as always if you see anything out of the ordinary please write webmaster@amsat.org
