Hello,
The physical node which hosts the Droplet(s)listed below experienced an unrecoverable hardware failure. Following the failure, we attempted to recover disk images for the affected Droplets; unfortunately, these efforts were unsuccessful.
As a result, some data is permanently lost. We are currently in the process of migrating all remaining data to a new physical machine. Once we are completed, your Droplet will be accessible via the web console once again. While some Droplets may boot, there is likely to be some level of data corruption that may affect the performance and behavior of your Droplet, including the ability for some applications to even start. If you notice a discrepancy in data, or you're unable to boot the Droplet, we recommend attempting to manually recover from a backup or snapshot.
We sincerely apologize for any impact. If you have any questions related to this issue please send us a ticket from your cloud support page.

I just logged in to email support and ask if we could recover something and violla, the droplet is back online.
I have a moral issue against rooting into this without jackjack's permission. Does anybody know how to contact him (or can they ask him to reach out to me?).
With his consent (or even help), i would love to get into the serverside code and work to get it updated and back online.
p.s. I rebooted it and all, can someone please check and see if the script is working? I don't have it on my current browser.
