UPDATE @ 01:13 GMT - November 2nd: The data center are still investigating. At this stage, our best advise to customers would be to activate your disaster recovery plans and potentially spin up a server elsewhere as it may be quicker to get back online. We do have off-site backups available which we will look to restore on an alternative machine, if that is required, but we are hopeful that will not be required.
UPDATE @ 07:25 GMT - November 2nd: This issue was resolved a few hours ago (02:46 GMT). Per the data center: The node is back online. We have moved the blade to a different chassis slot, after which the drives were successfully detected. The server has booted successfully and is currently at the OS login prompt.
