Server back to full operating capacity

Submitted by sam on Wed, 10/05/2005 - 03:38.

The server is now functioning properly. Basically... the server was always up... it just didn't have enough RAM to function properly, so it didn't serve many pages each day.

It's now back up to its normal memory, so it should be fine.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

You're @#$^ right! you're sorry! ^_^

How dare you let that RAM malfunction like that! I demand restitution! I demand my money baaa- oh wait...there are no fees? Hmm, makes this whole griping and complaining a lot tougher to do.

Well I *guess* I'll let it slide this time...but I'll be keeping my eyes on you!

Bah

Heh, it was actually somewhat of a comedy of errors at my colo. They had a stick of RAM go bad on one box (which hosts most of my virtual servers, except for my dev and mail servers). Then, the RAM couldn't get there in time. THEN they decided to forego the RAM replacement and just migrate all the virtual servers from the previous box to a new one with more juice (I don't know if you guys really know how much load you put on my server :-)

Long story short, it was a hard old ride.

The thing was, we never were down. We just weren't able to serve as many requests as normal. If you look at this server's web stats you can see we went from 17368 hits on Saturday, to 13494 hits on Sunday, and then down to 3586 by Tuesday :-/

So, the site was still up. It just didn't have the power to keep up with the demand placed on the server.
