As I'm sure several people noticed, we had an outage this morning. The cause was the aussie.zone SSL certificate expiring.
That's not supposed to happen, certbot and letsencrypt are supposed to handle that renewal automatically without bothering a human. I'll add some sort of monitor on the certbot log to look for errors and notify me going forward.
It also occurred to me that while my unofficial policy in the event of an outage is to make a post from my aus.social mastodon account, I haven't exactly communicated this to anyone. Nor have I communicated that I'll get a notification pretty quickly if you @ me there.
If the site is down for more than 10 minutes and I haven't made a post on aus.social about it, I probably don't know about the outage. Feel free to ping me on mastodon to bring it to my attention.
