Hi All, I am afraid there has been an issue with the underlying storage of CPDN. The storage of CPDN is held on a GPFS storage unit, this has experienced an issue with one of it's power cooling modules. The servers of the project are unaffected, however the download files of the project are held on the GPFS storage and these are inaccessible. This will mean that we cannot start the project again until this is solved. Best regards, Andy Hi All, We are going to use down period for the chance to take a backup of the database. So I will need to disconnect the database from the website for 24 hours for this to occur. Now as we have no slave database machine we have to make regular downtimes in order to take dumps of the database. A new slave machine has been ordered so we only need to do this for a finite period. Best regards, Andy It's working, it’s working Joy of Joys. I managed to add it as a new project on one of the new systems I have set up since it went off line. This is wonderful as it does truly seem that the weather has is really starting to show the effects of global warming. I know there are those in the world that choose to believe that humans have nothing to do with global warming. Those people must have their heads so far up, well you get my meaning. Anyway since we messed it up the very least we can do is donate of computers free time to doing something to try to understand what it will mean to us. I am so very happy to be able to get back to crunching number to help the world again. Thanks to all those unsung heroes that worked so hard so long to get the project back up. And thanks you Dave and Andy for taking the time to keep us updating on what was happening.

I have seen post that seem to indicate that some others have been able to connect at least on and off. I haven't been able to connect for at least 4 months. I've also added some new computers and can't add CPDN and I would really like to. I am looking forward to CPDN coming back up. Thanks.
