It is unlikely that good IPs will be moved to into the black ranges
with a short event like this-- so you should not need to dump GBUdb
unless you see GBUdb false positives.

The design of GBUdb is such that there is significant inertia for well
known IPs -- if they are known to be good -- or at least solidly not
bad, then the IPs will not be easily moved into the black ranges.

If you do decide to dump your GBUdb then follow this procedure:

Stop SNFServer

Delete the .gbx file in the SNF working directory.

Restart SNFServer

That procedure will cause SNF to build a new GBUdb file from scratch
based on what it is learning from that point on.

Best,
