Backup

A combination of small failures in configuration and monitoring resulted in Daily backups not being run on peck between September 1st and last Friday. Backups are now running again, but other than the Monthly backups, there are no intermediate Daily backups for the volumes on server peck. Updates in monitoring/testing are in progress to prevent this kind of oversight in the future.

Just like every year during the Christmas break, in the next weeks a full backup of many servers/filesystems onto tape will be made, that is preserved a long time. This will have the effect that servers will sometimes react slower during this period.
