Hostmonster Server Merger
Some of you guys might be experienced a site down during these few days as Hostmonster is merging some of their servers (As reported by HM customer: Host300) to a new box.
You would be seeing this error message if your website is affected:
"The website you are visiting is currently offline due to system maintinance.
In order to give the best filesystem performance possible, and to ensure the integrity of data, a diagnostic process is being performed, and any inconsistencies will be repaired. This process may take approximately 30 to 60 minutes."
Fortunately, this site is not affected but in case you’re worry about yours, you can always check your server status here: http://serverstatus.hostmonster.com
A few minutes back I was talking with the technical guy at HM and he told me that a few thousands of sites were down due to this planned upgrades and he assure me that the websites will be back in roughly 30 minutes. Good thing about it is that all websites affected will be directed to a splash page indicating the problem.
