Sync extended maintenance

Unread post by Moonchild » 2020-12-28, 09:57

Sync will be taken down for extended maintenance Wednesday 2020-12-30 10:00 UTC

This will involve system and database maintenance which may take up to 12 hours.

Please note: to address some disk performance issues, we may be forced to drop the synced data table, which means your data will have to be re-synchronized to the server after maintenance is complete. (We'll try to avoid this if at all possible, of course.)
As a reminder: don't use sync as a backup service. Your synchronized data is not guaranteed to persist.

Maintenance has been completed.
Db errors were corrected without data loss and performance should be up to par.
