Big 'ole server crash of 2/19-20

[Piratecat]

By the time I got home last night from a Spycraft game, there was no one at Cyberstreet. They rebooted (or did something), and we're back in action.

About darn time!

You da man.

you'd think they'd have some sort of alarm going off if a server goes down...

 

[Piratecat]

I don't think it's immediately apparent to them. Eric, I'll email you the contact info, in case you're around and I'm not.

 

[Buttercup]

Thank goodness it's back up. I was starting to get the DTs. AHHHHHGGGG! BUGS! BUGS EVERYWHERE! THEY'RE CRAWLING ON ME...oh, ahem. Excuse me.

 

[Piratecat]

Hee hee... I just typed the exact same thing in my story hour.

 

[Mark CMG]

Thanks PC! We can always count on you to move mountains when MoRuss is away!

 

[Sixchan]

Hmm...perhaps everyone should start putting those "I blame [Sixchan]" things back in their sigs.

Hee hee... I just typed the exact same thing in my story hour.

Oh dear God, what have you done to the Defenders now?

Update: Since the site just crashed, I just got off the phone with cyberstreet. We managed to overwhelm a router.

They're replacing it with a Cisco router which should hopefully be able to handle our load. Remember when we doubled our bandwidth a few months ago? For a few days, we were hitting the top level of THAT, too.

It's the HiveMind. Don't matter how big a router they put in; they'll swarm it like rot grubs over a giant rabbit.
