I don't know what all this technical gobbledy gook means. I just know how to turn on my porn machine and follow my bookmark to calguns.

Exactly. Except I just turn on my phone and scan through Calguns on the Tapatalk app.

Damnit now I'm over families house for Thanksgiving refreshing furiously the .net site, no love.

Now I have no choice but to rape the liquor so no one will try to talk to drunken me, and if they do, hell, I'm drunk. I'll never remember it and have the drunk excuse for anything I say.

Thanks CalGuns!

At least we know that we won't lose any of our highly insightful posts. Multiple backup exist at the NSA, FBI, ATF, DOJ...

Quote
26/2016 - 12:16pm PST - Update6: The time drift/snapshot bug in various backups as mentioned has resulted in all backups for the affected webservers and email servers to be completely useless. Further the fully restored hardware while functioning correctly is running gruesomely slow at the Hypervisor (Virtualization) layer - causing the restored servers to run so slowly they timeout before serving a single webpage or a single email. We are copying all Email Data to our newly provisioned AWS Cloud Servers - we will locate a DNS server there as well, to make sure that DNS has no further outages. At this time about 40% of the email data is transfered to AWS - and plan to bring email services back online by around 6pm PST.

Next Update at 4pm PST


so, cascading hardware failure, some firmware that wasn't updated, so they werent notified of the impending doom, and completely unusable backups due to bugs.
Erg. Not my circus, not my monkeys, thank God.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How exactly does a "bug" cause backups to become useless? Did the bug walk across the room, open the closet door, and eat the backup tapes?

I stand by my previous comments that this host is completely inept. Time to find a new one, in my opinion, even if the guy is Kes's friend. This is 2015, this sort of failure is not acceptable. It sounds like the forum might be starting from scratch. Let me put it this way... If you had the only copy of all your family photos stored at your friend's house, and they all got lost in a house fire because your friend left the stove on when he went on vacation, would you keep storing your new photos at his house after he rebuilds it?

Calm down, we are NOT starting from scratch.

The database server which has all the settings, posts, PMs and such is fine.
Our database is intact.

Worst case scernario is I have to reload the vBulletin software and reconnect it to the database.
If we lose anything it would be some images stored as attachments.

They justify their meddling by discovering social ‘problems’ and getting the media to mag

Calmness never solved anything  ;D That's all good news. By the way, how in the world did you end up with so much negative karma? It's anarchy around here  :o

I had to do that once for CAPRC after accidentally deleting the root directory on the web server.
It wasn't all that bad.
I didn't really enjoy taking showers with other men though I have done it

^^^^

Taking longer than expected to move the email data. Expecting ~7pm finish for that. No mention of website restorations though.

There is no question in my mind that this problem was brewing for possibly several weeks. Meaning at least one drive was failing somewhat and according to what I remember reading considering the heat issues, it was just a matter of time unfortunately. Certainly not blaming anyone. Just very unfortunate. I noticed the site being slow for at least one week prior to the crash. It could have been coincidental.

It was the job of the hosting company to make sure things like this don't happen. System failures this massive do not happen suddenly overnight, there has to have been some chain of events. My experiences with NOCs, it usually points to failure of the system managers to monitor the health of the system. Most NOCs only monitor basic functionality and do not get into the hardware as much. Personally I would never trust this hosting service again and for this hosting service, they need to make some real changes to how they monitor the site. Going over the AWS would eliminate most of their issues but makes them dependent on AWS.
