MySQL CPU usage has spiked, and we’re trying to bring it down without rebooting the server and damaging tables. Please have patience.

It’s not just you … promise. I wonder if this is like what happened yesterday or what …

Indeed, it was another network outage, but not like before:

RMFO is currently experience some downtime. I’ll post more as I know it.

10:33am CDT: back up…not sure why we were down yet.

11:43am CDT: ThePlanet.com was experiencing some routing issues that caused the downtime.

Hey, a number of you on Twitter seemed to wonder if the server was down; also, The Planet indicated that they had a network outage around the same time. Both seem to have resolved, and I’m just gonna figure that the two are connected. Sorry about the downtime!

• Hey, we’re long since done with the migration. Also, bzr and git are now installed on the server. #

Powered by Twitter Tools.

If you see a notice that says we’re still migrating, DNS has not propogated for you. If you see the normal forum, well, it’s all good.

All right … everybody out of the pool!

Okay, I’m not paying for two servers for a third month … so I have to get it done by tomorrow. Apologies in advance for any downtime, which I will seek to minimize.

Working to fix the problem now.

Something slowed up the pace of backups last night [best as I can tell, a variety of HTTP pingfloods from script kiddies], so the backups are still progressing during normal traffic, which causes slowness. Sorry, not really anything I can do about it other than cancel the backups, which I think you’d agree is bad.

We’ll be on the newer box soon.
