DLS Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Hello everyone listed down there =) I just wanted to make sure of something... IS the server DOWN? If it is, I can live with it for now, its just the fear that there's something else simply blocking my connection or whatnot ( missed patch/diff certificate/new IP server side etc for example ) that may have been overlooked thats affecting many also. Anyone ? I'm inclined to agree with Frizy tho. ....I CAN'T PROSPECT ASTEROIDS AND CRYSTALS IN WOW >< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seekeronos Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'm expecting that it will be all weekend - depends upon what specific number of devs can get together to figure it out. If I recall correctly, the servers are hosted in England? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sykotikjackal Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Cute, from the US the choke point was always France when tracing our routes to an old MUD server that was located in Austria, don't blame the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossdie [BT] Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Ok approaching 7hrs since it went down, I guess the hampster died instead of just falling off of the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xxiled Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 LOL, as someone who's also "in that business" I can tell you it would take a lot more than a snowstorm to take out any of our data centers. But I'm still trying to grasp the relationship between snow in Marlyand and a server in Germany . . . And what is it with all these nervous nellies and some snow. Jeebus, a lot of us live where snow is a part of life this time of year and we just deal with it. It snows in DC and not only is it news but they send home all the workers - PAID! My tax dollars at shirk. First of all, I said clearly that at the time, I didnt know where the servers were, secondly, weather related possibly, and it has nothing to do with your "data servers"..its aobut moisture..and the line connecting your "data servers"...snow drops trees..trees fall on power lines, etc..or do your "data servers" not need power? FYI Update...f0x news reports that from 400-500 thousand without power on the east coast today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I imagine the rest of the setup only goes downhill from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiyzer Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Well.. if the hampster died... I say we trudge down to Punxatawney Pa. and get that fat groundhog (who apparently saw his shadow this week, condemning us to another 6 weeks of crappy weather) and install his fat ass in the power supply wheel, as he's clearly not doing ANYTHING anyway!!!

sykotikjackal Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 As someone in the electronics industry, every place depends on overhead power lines in the US at some point or another. Our power grid was designed by Karl Steinmetz to last through the 50s or 60s, he said himself that it wasn't intended to last longer than that. So yes, SOMEWHERE data centers in the US always depend on overhead lines, they may be near a substation, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
