Hi Guys,

Unfortunately we are experiencing some technical issues this morning with the 7a cycle. This cycle will be delayed until we resolve the issue.

We will let you know as soon as we have it resolved.

Thank you for your understanding!

We are still digging into this.  We are having database server issues and have not yet pinpointed the problem.

At this point, we are also delaying the PM cycle (11:00 AM ET).

We will provide more details as soon as we have more to share.

Thanks for your patience.

Does this have anything to do with the maintenance a few days ago?     

Juan Montoya crashed into the server.

Funnier than what I was going to say.

Indeed, you won the thread.

All hail a_ersberg!

A special moment for a_ and for us all.

I knew Iran should have been attacked before they were able to achieve something on this scale...

OK -- the problem has been tracked down and corrected (for those techies out here, it had to do with a regularly scheduled transaction log backup conflicting with a nightly index defrag without any error being logged).

So, we will be kicking off the PM cycle (11:00 AM  ET) run at 2:00. The PM cycle 2 (3:00 PM ET) will then run at 5:00 today. That should bring us back to normal.

Again, we apologize for the delay today.

I was thinking the Nightly defrag fell off a log while looking through an index....never fails.....

Thanks for keeping us updated. My refresh button thanks you also ;-)

It's behind again!     

My first world that runs was maybe 5-7 minutes late, they may just not have kicked it off right at 2.

OK - we are all caught up!
