The cable is out at the house this morning so the server is offline. I am hoping to have something going on it later this morning.

I'm getting a time out message when I try to connect to the PBW site.


Never mind it working now.

Thanks.

Default Re: PBW status

an interesting stat would be monthly incidence of outage divided by category of cause
i would be interested in the following categories

1 down due to inet connection
2 down due to hardware fault
3 down due to power fault
4 down due to pbw server software fault
5 down due to pbw server operating system fault


i think this stat would be useful in showing us how important it is to contribute
plus it would indicate how severe a need for update is in each area compared to the other

just a thought somebody tell me th the thread where this message should go and i'll move it (that meaans delete and submit in correct thread)

It must have been one of those that fixed itself, like Geo says happens, 'cause it's up now.

I don't really keep records like I guess I should, but I'd estimate that recently #1 is about 4/5ths of the outages. And any time where it fixes itself before you see a comment from me, like this morning, you can be sure it was #1.

We haven't had an outage due to #2 in over a year. The other 1/5th would be divided among 3, 4 and 5, but sometiumes it's hard to pin down exactly. What looks like a software problem a lot of times can be caused by power glitches. We haven't had a software problem that required code changes or software reload to fix in quite a while though. The only ones we've had that I would even think of clasifying as a software problem were fixed with a reboot.

We probably need to add a couple more categories though.

#6 Dumb-*** Geo again
#7 Psycho Phong Cat

The funny thing is we used to blame it on the Psycho Phong Cat whenever we had a problem we couldn't explain, but I didn't even have a cat. Well we got a cat now and damn if the thing isn't psycho, and look a little bit like a Phong. I'll have to upload a picture and see if you guys don't agree.
