Server troubles...

Nelly Cat · 28-11-2005

Yay, we're back! Thanks to everyone who's been working on getting the board back up!

Ok, we are back up with our main server and have another server being put online this week. It was unfortunate that we had a bad motherboard at that time but it has taught me that the worst can happen. So Our new server will be a dedicated web server and our old server will become the dedicated database server. That still leaves lots of holes in redundancy but last night while I could not sleep I devised a Google type plan of using many cheap servers vs these large expensive servers. The cost in the end is the same but the more servers makes for more redundancy and less withdrawls.

I think it is so cool how people crave tFS. Please note that I understand this need and will work to make tFS more available over time. We are going to start a push towards attracting some community sponsors and with that we will be able to afford a better hardware infrastructure....

Dell shipped the wrong motherboard to the tech so he was NOT able to get the new motherboard installed today. He should have the correct part by tomorrow around noon (est). I am going to try and let the site run but I think the server will just crash. If it does crash I will turn the site off again and we will have to wait till tomorrow...

I've heard of many instances where peopel had problems with Dell in dealing with shipment. Oh well. I believe it's going to crash soon as it's nearly impossible to access the sub forums.

I knew something was going to happen with all the problems over the last few weeks, which was part of the reason I kept trying to get an Admin response.

Hopefully this will solve things.
