Comments on the following newsitem

There was a slight PBCAK while installing a new 42U rack today. Someone (me) bumped the power cord from the Collatz server which isn't even in the new rack. Due to the crash, it had disk errors while booting which took a little while to recover. Since the server was already down, I also took the time to optimize the database which was long overdue. Everything should be back to normal now.

It turns out the problem wasn't so simple. The boot drive has multiple bad sectors and needs to be replaced. That is going to take a while.
