Sorry for the outage, it wasn't even the fault of this site!
But I actually run the website for a fellow Porsche owner's business on this same server. In order to protect both sites I run nightly backups that get sent to a cloud server.
Well unfortunately in the case of our friend's site it kept saving the backups to his local directory as well. Early this morning the server got filled to capacity and it said "no mas" so everything came to a halt.
Chalk another one up as a learning experience. And now you all know why backups run at 2am.
