Downtime and MT backup

| 0 Comments | 0 TrackBacks
On the second day of my holiday, my provider VAServe basically seized to exist. It had a major breakdown with data loss up to 40% in both data centers in UK and UK.
So my VPS including backups went down. On my return I find out that I cleaned all backups from my  laptop, - freeing space for the holiday photos.  VAServ recovered and provided me with new clean VPS,
I managed to recover Movable Type from 3thd May backup, but find out that backup/restore facility doesn't work as good as promised. I had to reset all styles in order to get it working - no styles. I don't remember exact plugins I was using (except for my hacks) for tags and active streams, so their settings and templates lost.
Things usually happened when I am away, so I was planing to do full backup of the server on the last day, but instead I was deploying django website to dedicated server up till 2 o'clock in the morning.
Stay tuned for Wedding and Honeymoon photos.
