Sorry for the down time
Damn that was a rough couple of days, but we're back up now. Here's what happened:
[quote]Dear WestHost Clients, On Saturday, February 20th at approximately 2:20 p.m. MDT, we experienced some hardware failure as a result of an annual fire system inspection at our Data Center (DC). An inadvertent release of Inergen was triggered in the DC environment. The release was triggered by an actuator that was not removed as required in the DC's pre-test checklist. As such, the entire DC was impacted at some level, however not all servers were affected. This error was not the result of a mistake by WestHost employees, our hardware or systems. The mistake was triggered by an error from a vendor. With that said, we take responsibility and are doing everything we can to restore all systems completely. There were multiple servers impacted by this outage; some of the servers have had damaged hardware replaced while other servers need to be restored from backups. A large majority of the servers that were affected have since had all services restored and are back online. We still have a few remaining servers that are experiencing problems. We are doing everything we can to restore those remaining servers as quickly as possible.

Re: Sorry for the down time

The Warpath will never die.

Re: Sorry for the down time

An active board with over 6000 members doesn't just die.

Re: Sorry for the down time
I didn't even know it was down. To check in on facebook do I have to have an account?
|
Re: Sorry for the down time
Okay, my shakes are getting better now. Matty, have you contacted them about getting free service for a while? I'm sure, if you have an SLA, they broke it something fierce being down for a few days. Definitely worth a bitchy e-mail.
|
Re: Sorry for the down time
IT says in the blog they are giving free months out.
|
Re: Sorry for the down time
Glad to see you back. :woot:

They sure as hell better be. I feel kinda fortunate, I mean there are people out there running businesses that are literally losing income and potential customers over this. |

I'm going to wait for the dust to settle on everything and see what they offer. They've already promised to credit people for the downtime and I won't be surprised if they tack on some additional free time as well. |

Re: Sorry for the down time
No Warpath = Misery. Glad to see we're back.
|
Re: Sorry for the down time
Whew...so I wasn't banned! :D
To the site-crasher...don't touch that plug EVER AGAIN. Glad the site is back. Was wondering if Snyder shut us down for legal reasons. If redskins202 is indicative of the people at ES, I never want to have to go there. |

I remember you setting it up last time so I added it to my favorites. I don't use Facebook so that was a huge help. |
Re: Sorry for the down time
Personally I blame 53Fan for the crash.
I'm so glad the Warpath is back. |
Re: Sorry for the down time
I thought Snyder finally shut us down, glad to see it back up!

Re: Sorry for the down time
I'm not a facebook person, but I was checking to hear anything on Twitter. Forgot about the blog. C'est la vie. Glad the Warpath is back up, and appreciate your efforts Matty.

Re: Sorry for the down time
Damn, I thought I woke in the middle of a bad Will Smith movie. Shit, that was scary.

Re: Sorry for the down time
Reading ES for the past few days has been depressing.

I mostly post/lurk in the off topic forums there. The main forum is a total cluster F. |

It was depressing enough not having The Warpath....reading ES would have pushed me over the edge. |

I just lurk myself. If you can get through all the clutter you'll find a few good articles and obviously theres good posters over there but yeah for the most part their site is a mess. They have done pretty good though over the past year or so in cleaning up the site getting rid of threads like "What if the Skins...." but theres still a lot of crap you have to sort through to find the good stuff.

Well thats the ironic thing. We've all been banned for the past couple of days. It was like some sort of nuclear banhammer. [CENTER][IMG]http://i26.tinypic.com/eqr1ad.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] |

Well thats what happens when you get a TON of people that post on one site. Where ES is like China The Warpath is more like Denmark. [url=http://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/07/02/nations.happiness/index.html]Denmark 'happiest' country in the world - CNN.com[/url] |
