We haven't had any major dramas for a while.
Although my phone does buzz to the sound of txt msgs from the server during bad games and big issues.
I've been getting memory/swapping issues for a while. (No old people jokes thanks!!)
I've investigated, but it returns REAL NERD data, and I'm not that nerdy.
So I've tended to ignore them.
Usually it is a 1st notice, occassionally a 2nd notice.
Last night I got a 3rd notice, which incurred a suspension.
So after some consultation (and begging), I've been granted a reprieve, as long as I upsize the server. Just like at Maccas, but it costs more. Like double.
So we will have this temporarily, and then there are new servers which are almost the same cost as the current one, but an already upsized version.
I will move to that ASAP. The catch is I have no idea how to do that, so the Host has recommended a place that does.
It may cost a bit, I still have a bit in the kitty, so I'm going to get a quote and go ahead with the move.
It will be better in the long run.
Not sure how long all this will take, so I will try and keep you posted.
If anyone knows anything about moving servers, Rsync, etc, etc drop me a line.
PS: try not to hit the site so hard over the weekend, we don't want to kill it off again. Cheers!!!!!
PPS: it is resizing ATM so it may be a bit slow still till that is finished, usually takes about 1/2 hour or so.
