I will be applying a patch to the Mastodon code on all Masto.host instances to mitigate an increased number of errors from object storage when instances are under heavy load: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/38145
This will require restarting services, causing approximately 15 seconds of downtime.

On large instances using OpenStack Swift, normal operations (media uploads, deletes, federation) and tootctl commands like media remove trigger a new Keystone authentication request for every attac...
Maintenance on Database server 11 is complete, and all is back to normal. There was about 10 minutes of downtime.
If you notice any problem, please let me know.

Scheduled maintenance tomorrow, March 3rd (05:00-06:00 UTC).
Database server 11 will be offline for about 1 hour, but only instances using that server will be affected. All other instances will continue to operate normally.
If your instance is affected, the instance owner should have received an email with the details.

Check your instance's database server: https://my.masto.host
The Masto.host website and dashboard are back online.
The server required manual intervention after becoming stuck during the reboot. Once back up, the kernel update that triggered the reboot proved to have compatibility issues with the server, so I had to revert to the previous version. Everything is now running normally.
Sorry for the unexpected downtime. Thanks 馃悩
The reboot on the website and dashboard server is not going as smoothly as expected -- the server got stuck and needs a manual intervention from the data center. Hopefully it should be back online soon.
Again, no instances are impacted. All hosted services are running normally.
I will be rebooting the server where Masto.host website and dashboard are hosted.
No instance will be impacted.
The website and dashboard will be down for about 5 minutes.
This is also a good time to check out the new Masto.host Status page, now live at https://status.masto.host. Still testing, but it should provide much more clarity on any issues that come up.
Upgrade installed!
