Mysql server, Spike, has been impaled!
Spike crashed, and is down for the count! We’re currently moving it to new hardware, and should have it back up soon! We apologize for the problems this causes.
The move took longer than expected, but its all back up and running. Sorry for the trouble.

I’m having DB issues also…I suppose I should have written down the servers and clusters that I’m on.

Poor Spike. At least they’re working on it. While outages are not great, this is the first database outage I’ve ever had in over two years with DreamHost. And it’s due to DreamHost’s transparency and customer service that I stay with them and recommend them to my clients. And I’ve started collecting bad experiences with other hosting companies here:

Oh yeah, all DBs for all my sites are on Spike. But as you others have said, this is the first DB issue I can recall in over 2 years of hosting here. For the price and level of service, you can’t beat it, and I’m sure they’ll have it back up ASAP.

Eeek! That’s my store, my class schedule, and my blog. But I’ve had really good up-time, and I trust you to have it back soon… Where do I send Spike’s flowers, to hope he/she/it gets well soon?!

Hope the correction is fast! I put aside a day of site upgrades but now I guess I can take it easy.
