Re: nanog.org website - restored

2013-10-08 Thread Randy Bush
 For those interested, we would like to share some details of this event.
 It was noticed a couple weeks ago that a lack of memory conditon was
 present on the NANOG servers in Chicago.  Temporary measures were taken
 to clear processes and restart the server, but this only temporarialy
 restored the server.
 
 Working with onsite personel to upgrade the server with additional
 memory failed during the first announced maintenance.  Compatible memory
 was located and tested leading to the second maintenance when it was
 successfully installed.
 
 At this time we have increased the memory on the server and are at a
 stable point.

thank you for a simple, clear, and prompt post mortem.  my only
remaining curiosity is what was the original ram size and what is it
now.

web console and tell it I want more geebees.

We believe the server is now at a stable point and all functions of the
NANOG website and mailing list are restored.

For those interested, we would like to share some details of this event.

NANOG is making plans to move the NANOG web and mail services off this
platform to an environment that is more capable.  We will inform the
community of any maintenance plans as we move forward.

If the file from the presentation about NSA spying is removed from the
server, it's possible it suddenly starts to be stable again.
