Our production server is offline, and awaiting shipment in San Jose, as is our secondary server. Our tertiary server, the first off-site backup for the other two machines, had a hard drive failure this morning (thanks for the call, Sideshow). Our secondary off-site backup has more limited space and bandwidth, so I have (to this point) only been performing secondary off-site backups once a month...which means that when the hardware failed this morning, we had to go back to a 1 month old version. If I don't have more info on when the other servers will show up by the end of this week, I will locate a better secondary off-site provider, and move the current one to a tertiary role.

Honestly, I just can't provide more redundancy than that :) Sorry for the lost work, everyone.
