The issue has been resolved and everything is running again.
Downtime was 26 minutes.

Feedback from Hetzner about the cause:
"an urgent maintenance had to be performed on the Cloud-Servers hostnode."
This is by the way the first outage of a VM in the almost 3 years of running mountains.social. Not bad at all.

⚠️ disruption ⚠️
Due to an issue with the VM with Elasticsearch, the search function in mountains.social is currently not working. Will work with Hetzner to get it resolved.
ℹ️ maintenance ℹ️
I just upgraded mountains.social to Mastodon version 4.4.8, which delivers a fix for a security issue allowing quote controls to be bypassed.
✅ maintenance ✅
And we're back. The servers on plan CX22 have been migrated to CX23 and the CX32 to CX33.
This will save us some (2.87 EUR, 14% on server costs), while keeping the same resources.
Looping in #MastoAdmin, #FediAdmin, #PixelAdmin, as lots of Fediverse instances run on Hetzner and might also want to benefit.
ℹ️ documentation ℹ️
For the ones interested, updated also the documentation reflecting the new server types.
⚠️ maintenance ⚠️
Hetzner has introduced new server plans (a bit newer, but a bit cheaper as well).
Will rescale the servers for mountains.social and mountains.photos at 12:30 CEST to benefit from this. This will cause a downtime for a couple of minutes.
