De OpperKoe is vannacht tijdens de dagelijkse stats update weer eens krank gegaan. David McNett (aka Nugget) schrijft in z'n .plan update:
During tonight's stats run things got extremely unhealthy during the creation of the rc5-64 overall email rankings table. Sybase consumed all it's locks and several processes became deadlocked and refused to die gracefully. (Heck, they wouldn't even die screaming).We spent a few hours poking and prodding, trying to convince the blocking process to go away to no avail. Unfortunately, the only recourse at that point was to down the whole server in a rather indelicate manner. (not quite a kill-9, but pretty close).
Right now we're sifting through the data now that the server is back online. We're trying to determine the scope of the damage (if any) and get a feel for the situation.
More info as the situation progresses...
In de tussentijd kun je natuurlijk mooi DPC gaan joinen, voor het geval je dat nog niet gedaan hebt (niet-DPC leden zijn geen goeie tweakers en mogen - euh moeten - gediscrimineerd worden ).
