Suggestion:

1) Move the caselog tree elsewhere and hide/disable it.  Heck, it is a
r/o mirror, you could simply just delete it.  This will immediately
relieve the pressure on the site without having to disable the whole
ARC community.

2) Disable the sac/os.o mirror cron job so it doesn't get put back.

3) re-enable the arc community's site to give access to the basic docs.

As an ARC Community leader, I resent this unilateral action taken to
shut down our community without any interaction or discussion /WITH/
our community.

Wonderful thing, that passive voice.  Makes it sound like it is all my
fault.  The website team was told we needed a place to put the arc
stuff.  The existing solution was suggested by them, even though it
was imperfect, because no alternatives (other than go build your own
site yourself) were available, and a replacement site was coming
online within a few months.  That was several years ago, and in those
years, the request to disable/bypass the navbar for the arc community
was ignored.

... without first bring this issue up to the community and the OGB for
dispute resolution?

Oh, this isn't a COMMUNITY thing, it is an internal-to-Sun thing.
Sorry, I thought this was an open source community...
