Meh forgot my server has nothing to do with NFo cause my server isn't part of the NFo client -.-.

But still my server is on a NFo box you can expect 100% uptime.

Most customers will not ever experience true downtime (a loss of service that is in our sphere of influence and is not in an announced maintenance window). This is because our hardware, software, and bandwidth are very reliable. We do very rarely see hardware failures, DDoS attacks, and power equipment issues that affect a particular location, but even when these do occur, they do not cause significant downtime because we can generally shift service to a different machine (and restore the last backup), block the attack, or have the facility fix the power (respectively) very quickly.

99% uptime would mean 7.2 hours per month of downtime, and that would be insane. 99.9% uptime would allow 43 minutes per month of downtime, and I would say that we average much less downtime than that.
