We're still figuring out exactly what's happened and what we're going to do to make this not happen again. The power went out. The UPS that's supposed to bridge the few seconds until the generator kicks in decided to take a nap. The database cluster had to be restarted from cold, which is a tricky time for a cluster. (They generally prefer partial failures or rolling restarts.) When the cluster finally did come back up, something got misconfigured. A scheduled backup fires off and takes down one mode which apparently the others dislike and they all start squabbling about who has the most recent copy of this table or that, and so damage control, cleanup and restarting the site gets more complicated.
