Yes, and there are odds it will stay down for a bit longer, there have been problems with a (non-)redundant power supply (redundant by design, but non-redundant by modules failing at the same time).

We're back. It turned out

We're back.
It turned out that the (RAID) disks after a couple of years need more power (due to worn bearings) and overloaded the power supply.

EDIT: server status page is fixed again.

Caused by the upload of new

Caused by the upload of new input files which have to be distributed to the download servers. The script on the main server apparently looked for a very new file which hadn't made it yet. Nothing to worry about :)
