On Friday December 19, 2025, Seravo's server cluster fi-ellington experienced a network failure during a scheduled maintenance, affecting almost all sites on the cluster. The disruption was caused by a configuration failure within the cluster’s internal network connections and was noticed immediately and was fixed as quickly as it was possible.
