Re: [hlds_linux] Optional (for servers) Team Fortress 2 update released
Setting it to read only isn't helping with the spikes, unfortunately. I'm not sure what exactly the debug code is doing that they left on, but the logs aren't being flushed to file immediately after a snapshot overflow so this stuff is building up in memory for a while. Fletcher also talked about network packing code being rerun after a drop, and I'm assuming this is the point that I am seeing spikes on my servers. Steamauth drops have increased quite a bit in recent updates and these seem to coincide with spikes I'm seeing.

Re: [hlds_linux] Optional (for servers) Team Fortress 2 update released
They don't correlate. Nor do the timings of the log dumps match to the timing of the actual snapshot overflow occurrences. And not all reliable snapshot overflows seem to be dumped to files. I reinstalled srcds earlier this week for both my servers, but my back up of one server shows that the netspike.txt file (which was 2GB) was last touched June 29th despite having reliable snapshot overflow errors through to July 9th when I reinstalled.

Re: [hlds_linux] Optional (for servers) Team Fortress 2 update released
Ah, I didn't see your original message regarding the file size. I don't think the OS is the limitation. 16TB is the max file size for ext4 is it not? Windows admins are seeing larger file sizes than this, so it must be a limitation on the linux branch. I am at a loss as to what my recent CPU spikes are caused by if it's not this debugging code. I never had any issues before the recent updates, and even with SourceMod/MetaMod disabled I still see them occurring. On 12.07.2012 11:01, Invalid Protocol wrote: Read my previous message.

We have released an update to Half-Life 1 dedicated servers. This update is moving the heartbeating protocol for servers to go over a more reliable channel and also contains some code fixes in the steam support portion of the server. After this update the setmaster command will return none, this is by design, your server will still be reported. We expect to disable the old reporting method in the next week or so, so please apply this update at your earlier convenience. - Alfred ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
