@ 23:00 – I need to reboot Rampage now, this is due to a kernel update we have put in place. It should take 3 minutes if everything goes well. If everything doesn’t then there is a tech on hand on-site who will boot it back into the original kernel. I’ll keep you up-to-date either way. Sorry for any inconvenience caused, this is necessary to keep the server running for the longterm.

@ 23:05 – Server is back! Kernel upgrade successful, downtime was about 90 seconds, if that. — 23:05:49 up 0 min,  1 user,  load average: 0.84, 0.19, 0.06 — Mem:   8311304k total,   959504k used,  7351800k free,    83304k buffers
