>Last night Karen and I finished replacing the failing drive in the

>a mixture of OS, local executables, and user HTML pages on it and we
>carefully separated those components onto separate disks.

>We were down for about 7 hours while we reconfigured the server.

>The good news is that the failing drive is now out of the machine,

>newer and faster machine.

>The bad news is that the old server is still overloaded. We had
>hoped the new drives (which are much faster than the old drive)
>would have helped reduce the load on the server, but we still have
>capacity problems.

>We will probably have to continue disabling server-side includes
>during peak hours until we get the new server online. Sorry about

>We now expect to be bringing the new server online early next week.
