They did a "reset." Cancel enough flights to reduce load, then manually recalibrate the crew tracking software to figure out where everyone is and their hours. Then start operations again.

It's like stopping your in-place manual software recovery efforts and restoring from backup. You KNOW it's going to take a massive amount of time, but at least you know how much time it's expected to take, and what the expected result is, rather than "2 more hours... 2 more hours.... 2 more hours.." for a week.
