Re: [Micronet] The Great Thanksgiving CalMail Outage of 2011 - a blast from the past

2015-11-25 Thread Philip Weekly
IRC,  yea that brings back some memories.  Way back when the eskimo servers
were the place to hang out (1989-93)

 

 

Anybody else on here remember fighting for mod control when net-splits would
occur?

A net split would occur so you go create a new room with the same name as
the one you wanted to control (#somechannel) and then start your bots and
when the split would rejoin your server to the other IRC servers you would
retain your mod status and mod's would start kicking and banning each other
for control.

 

Those were fun times! Some of the first and finest Internet wars I've
experienced.

 

Best,

 

Philip

Umm, in the middle of it?  :)

 

We spent hours each day on the IRC channel, everyone working towards getting
the system back up and running.  Many many hours spent in the "War Room",

 

So, no one remembers when we were UCLink and went down for about a week?  

 

Ah, those were the days...

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

https://twitter.com/UCBCalMail

For those who weren't around Campus during the pre-bConnected days,
the then-Campus email service, CalMail, suffered what ought to have
been a relatively minor hardware failure over the 2011 Thanksgiving
weekend.

It turned into 1-2 weeks of hard-downtime without e-mail access and
over a month before the return of full service.  IST pulled in many
resources from across campus and beyond to work on this.

Later in December, Campus announced that it had selected Google for
its email/calendaring/collaboration service provider; the selection
process for that had been in progress since before the downtime.

The outages of CalMail were few, but significant - I feel like what
outages we have with bMail may be more frequent, but far smaller on
an individual basis and thus less impactful.

I was on the East Coast at the time, taking some personal time over
in NYC before, ironically, attending USENIX LISA, the yearly USENIX
system administration conference in Boston [0], but back here, many
on campus were suffering the lack of email, the edicts from on high
not to use off-campus e-mail services like personal gmeil accounts,
and the out-of-band (thankfully, EECS had its XMPP/Jabber IM system
that was interoperable at the time with people on GChat, so many of
us communicated via that and other channels - that interoperability
went away with the Googlification of Campus)

Where were you during the Great CalMail Outage of 2011? How did you
cope with the lack of e-mail?

--Jon
[0] Yeah, here I am, one of the only people from UC Berkeley at the
biggest sysadmin conference, and UC Berkeley e-mail is down.  Yeah,
that wasn't embarrassing, though I did get a good joke when someone
I knew who had done some consulting for CalMail asked, "What's up?"
I could only respond, "Not CalMail."
