Openshift V2 sunsetting caused out normal etherpad to go down. I've been
able to partially restore it on our still running V2 account. I was able to
what I can surmise as partially restore the database, so if you had prior
pads with data you need that may or may not exist on it. The partial
restore is due to how much space mongodb consumes when restoring a database
and the limited size of the V2 gear. We still have the original mongodb
that can still be restored on other hardware or setup to recover any data
that users may need. For now, if you need a scratch etherpad feel free to
use this but please don't use it as long term storage. Prefer instead to
use it for collaboration and move off anything you need to store to -dev
mailing list or wiki for now.
I was a bit pre-mature. There is no sorta! I upgraded the storage just
enough to let me fully restore the database. You should find anything as of
Sunday available on it now. If something is missing please let me know. But
for all intents and purposes, consider this up and running now.
