Re: [tor-relays] Issues with faravahar?



Dear Tor Relay Operators,

Faravahar had some hardware issues last night, while I was on an airplane without internet access.
It took me a few hours to respond and I apologize for the delay.

Please note that redundancy is built into the network, and I am committed to operating this system with very high availability. A maintenance window to replace the hardware will be announced soon, this system has been running since 2012 and it's time to upgrade. 

All the best,
Sina
