Backups are overrated and even if they exist, when does restoring the data ever work when you really need it to work? :-) </sarcasm> Considering the circumstances, i think the handling of the situation was quite good, and from a technical point of view, i couldn't have done anything better i guess (from what we know up to now). Of course, for those not on the relevant communication channels like IRC :-), the communication of what's happening should have been better for a big/long outage like this one, but that's actually my only problem with the whole incident (apart from the backup-thing) so far. Those things happen. I just hope the NCC learns some lessons, we get some more information about the root cause and what's being done to prevent this in the future, and i also hope there won't be too much ranting about this here or during the next AGM from C-Level droids. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards Sascha Lenz [SLZ-RIPE] Senior System- & Network Architect
