OFPEC site down - More information

Sui has posted some more information about how and why OFPEC website went down, in the BI Forums. Hopefully they recovered almost all the site content, but the code of their website is lost. Good news is that they planned implementing a new version of their site engine, so that’s what they are working on at the moment.

What happened
At the end of January, while undergoing a hardware upgrade our servers had multiple critical hardware failures. We feared all was lost, all data, our forums, everything.
I am pleased to announce we have managed to salvage our databases (which also contain our forums), and are still working to try to salvage resources that had been submitted to OFPEC. However the site code is pretty much gone.
Where we stand at this point
Before the hardware failure, plans had been underway to update OFPEC to better cope with the release of ArmA and the needs of the community. The plans were going to involve a full site rebuild and forum upgrade.
These plans have now been fast tracked.
Instead of resurrecting the ‘old’ OFPEC, we will be launching a ‘new and improved’ site.
Progress thus far
We ordered new hard drives last week, to be set up in a configuration that gives us an extra level of fault tolerance. They have arrived and our host, Hubba, now has our database servers back up. He is now installing our site back-end, and working at getting that up and running.
We be getting our forum up first, and launching the rest of our site as work on it is completed.
More to come next week.
