Hi Folks, This is sort of off-topic, but I can give it a cf slant. Once a week, our oracle server is taken down for back-ups. I don't know enough about oracle administration to know if it has to be made unavailable during backups, but that's the way our admins have it set. So, once a week, I come in in the morning to about three error messages from hits during the time that the oracle server is down. Yah, I know, 3 hits while down isn't that big a deal, but sometimes it's 10, sometimes 5...etc.
So, I'm wondering how other people handle stuff like this. Do you ignore it, and let the user see your standard - there's an error, the webmaster was emailed - page? Do you schedule a different page to load for all .cfm pages that access a database - something like "our server is down for maintenance - this usually takes less than 2 minutes, please check back momentarily." Thoughts? -d Deanna Schneider Interactive Media Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
