Criminals go full Viking on #CloudNordic, wipe all servers and customer data

source: https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/23/ransomware_wipes_cloudnordic/

However, the #provider notes that it will take a "massive amount of time" to restore all of these services, even without data, and as such it encourages "critically affected" customers to find new providers "to minimize your #downtime."

Without data? Why use a #cloud #service if I still have to maintain and import my own #backup?

A notice about diaspora*'s project infrastructure

Hi everyone.

In the night from March 1st to March 2nd, starting at 21:00 UTC until 04:00 UTC, the project infrastructure will be unavailable. Our infrastructure provider is undergoing major datacenter construction, and because of that, our servers will have to be moved from the current datacenter into a freshly built building.

This downtime will affect

  • our Discourse forum
  • the project website, blog, and wiki
  • the Gem server set up by the project, which will cause brief interruptions when updating your pod or setting up a new pod, so please don't do that during this period!

This downtime will not affect any pods and the diaspora* social network will continue uninterrupted!

We'll try to keep the downtime as short as possible, but given this maintenance involves physically moving multiple racks into a new building, there's a limit to how fast this can be.

There might be a planned downtime tomorrow 14:00 CET. I am still figuring out if it is necessary to swap the NVME storage drive of the server and am in contact with the hosting company.

Please prepare for about 4-6 hours downtime to allow raid resync.

It might be much shorter, but I feel more comfortable with that prognosis.

Also if you know your way around NVME replacement and raid resync I am open for suggestions on how to do this, maybe it is possible to resync the system while it is running, last time I did not manage to do this and had to use a rescue live #Linux system to recover.

Joindiaspora seems (mostly?) back online

TL;DR: Things broke. They're a bit better but the rifts are not yet healed.

As noted a couple of days ago, the Diaspora* pod I use, #JoindiasporaCom, broke both Federation and Notifications:

Cause was noted by the Podmin as an issue with the Redis service:

https://joindiaspora.com/posts/ef1143e0f83d0139047c002590d8e506

I am expecting a flurry of new Notifications, though those haven't yet appeared. There were a few from Joindiaspora itself, all apparently postdating the outage, as well as one from another pod.

I'd also tested comment federation by replying to an off-pod post here: https://joindiaspora.com/posts/1e1d72e0f7050139eeb7002590c0bfb8

My comment does appear when viewed from Joindiaspora, but is still not shown on either Diasp.org or Pluspora.com.

On the other hand, post-incident content does seem to be federating, as this Diasp.org view showing my comment:

https://diasp.org/posts/9201304d-1287-4c8c-8fbb-e8ddcd8679e2

If you've commented to my own posts over the past couple of days, or tried contacting me otherwise through Diaspora*, it will likely be some time before those messages come through.

As always, I am reachable by email: at dot

Thanks. Apologies for any inconvenience.
