Some NAS Drive synchronisation is still taking place, this will cause high load on some servers which may cause intermittent problems accessing some sites. Any access issues should only be momentary.

All websites should now be being served but there may be some slightly degraded performance and work is ongoing behind the scenes to improve this.

Update
We are still seeing problems with some sites hosted on our Shared Platform and Premium Hosting Platform. This is caused because of a connectivity issue between our Web Servers, NAS Drives and Database servers. Our System Administrators are restoring connectivity but this is taking longer than anticipated as additional work is required (such as NAS data synchronisation). We are working on the restoration of sites and services with the highest priority and as work continues we are seeing more sites restored.
Please note that this will also be affecting FTP connectivity to some hosting packages.
We apologise for the time it is taking to fully restore all sites and services and would like to thank you for your patience and understanding.

Update
Site restorations are still ongoing and are taking longer than expected. We will provide ongoing updates as we have them through the evening. Sites should gradually start coming back on-line while this work is taking place, however, this process is ongoing due to the amount of data involved.
