I assigned poddery.com ip to backup.poddery.com and added a message about down time.

I'm able to connect the disks to a C1 instance (2GB ARM). I will setup diaspora on this box, it will suffer from performance issues, but that is the only option at this point.

poddery.com is back. prosody is not configured yet.

I got C2S instance to start again by adding a single 150 GB disk. I hope it'll last enough till we find a new host. We need to sync backup.poddery.com with the new server. I'll be travelling tomorrow, anyone else wants to do it?
@anisha @tvm @balasankarchelamat @fayadfami ?
You'll need to update ssh known_hosts for the new machine for root (used for rsync of uploads) and sshtunnel user (tunnel established for mysql slave).
Docs are here http://fosscommunity.in/index.php?title=Poddery
I'm planning to add "a fund to support me or others who wants to step in to maintain" part of the next crowd funding. If that does not work out, the other option is to drop poddery.com (hopefully we'll have pod migration by then).

poddery.com is fully functional again (after a crisis of last 3 days) https://codema.in/d/KbATojC4/image-upload-is-broken
Just remember to update private ip of poddery.com in backup.poddery.com's /etc/hosts file if you reboot poddery.com We are using private ip for backup to save cost of public ip.

12gb used up in just 2 days, now just 14gb remaining :(
We have to find which user is eating our disk so fast.

mysql db grew from 21gb to 35gb :( so we need to scale storage upto 6gb per day.

It was a hidden file left out by an interrupted rsync. We have 27 GB left. Hopefully it'll last for a few more months.

Finally scaleway responded, but we are not able to resolve the issue yet. It seems they don’t have any server which can take two 100GB disks (I don’t know how that can be a problem as these disks are connected as network disks). I’m trying if I can attach these disks onto a new machine. But C2 (baremetal) is out of stock and VC1 (VPS) has limitation on how big the disks can be.
