Stats are down

[Bok]

One of the SSD's in the database server is getting errors. I'm going to remotely unmount it and run an fsck and see if that fixes it.

Not having too much luck with hardware recently at all

Hope its not serious. Those SSD drives are like 6 months old right?

There are 3 SSD's in it and this is the oldest at 3 years old. Does not look like it wants to come back up.

Not much I can do from here. At times I really want to just give it up

It's only the stats and only the web facing database, so it can be recovered, but this is going to be out for a while.

Let us know what's needed. We'll cover it.

Actually that one didn't work, I took it down last night.

Should be up soon but you can also go to http://www.free-dc.org/paypal.php

Stats seem stable enough, just a couple of tweaks this morning and I'll open it all up. They are definitely running quite a bit faster too.

The paypal link worked!

Thanks Bok, I get a lot of enjoyment from your stats site and all that you do for us, so it's only fair that I help out.

Good news, looks like I've recovered all of the data as far as I can tell. A few tables gave me errors but they are replicated versions anyway so no big deal. Running tests which will take some time but I think it will be back up no later than noon tomorrow. I'll have to put the drives in correctly as they are just loose right now.

I'm going to look into getting 2 external drives (500Gb or would be fine) and running parallel backups to them. And will pick up another SSD at some point just in case. Can't have too many backups. I'll script something to detect problems too.

What would we do without you BOK.? Folks, how about we chip in and help with the purchase of those new hardware. Where and how do I send my donation to start this off?

I believe he has a donate link on the FreeDc site. But it's down right now.
