What's going on with the mbin instance fedia.io? (lemmy.world)

It'd become my favorite mbin instance but now it isn't loading. Hopefully it's nothing serious, but I was wondering if anyone happened to know what is going on. Thanks!

Edit: Looks like it's back up now. Thank you to everyone who helps keep instances in the fediverse running, you all are great!

We're also trying to investigate and solve the issues he's been running into

Based on the newest updates there, it sounds like he's having to "rebuild" it. I assume that that's more than just a drive failure and rebuilding a RAID array, since that should be able to happen in the background, so I assume that the admin is having to put the instance back together from scratch and backups or something like that. :-/

Just a little impromptu DR testing!

Awesome, thank you all! Hope it ends up going well and isn't too much of a pain in the ass.

Yeah, I noticed when I came home from work but I was hoping it'd be resolved by now.

Ah well, I should go touch some grass anyhow.
