I am having issues viewing my site. I see that there are two yellow lights for the functionality of the server today...what does that mean for us?

I am investigating this matter and you may experience server delay or short outages during the next 24 hours. Your patience during this period will be appreciated.

And do you have a timeframe on when this problem will be fixed?

seems to be working again right now, but the levels are dangerously close to those that rendered us site-less before.

It was just a time when one of the configuration files were being upgraded which would have occured only for a couple of minutes. Nothing to worry about, everything is fine now.

im just wondering why the yellow light is up for this message on the server: Memory Used 86 % and it is happening for more than a few minutes more than once a day.

Yellow light in the server status page just says that the corresponding resources on the server are being utilised almost completely. It is when it shows red that it means that over-utilisation of that corresponding resource is being done, and the server administrator (in this case it is me) has to be alerted.
