The server team was notified as soon as things started to get laggy. They are on the case and we'll update with further information as it becomes available.
Stay tuned.

The server should be on its way back up now. Some further information regarding what caused this should follow shortly after everything has been sorted and double checked.
Cross your fingers and toes, just to be safe.

Due to the fast growth of EVE, the database grows at a much faster rate then before. This means that we need to do more maintenance downtimes and can lead to incidents like what happened now.
With the biggest tables and the transaction log on the RAMSAN, we get dangerously low on diskspace there between extended maintenance downtimes, and tonight everything went boom when the transaction log filled up while a full backup was running on the database.
I've put in temporary measures to prevent this from happening again... well, prevent it from crashing the cluster because of this and we have more hardware on the way.
I'm really sorry for any inconveniance this downtime caused.

Note that, as after any startup, solarsystems will take some time to load, but especially now since the database failed over when the transaction log filled up, so its cache and buffers are all empty, so all data has to be read from its disks.
