Why cant I acces xtremesystems sometimes?

Just as the thitle says actually,

Is it downtime of the server or is it something with my network connection (doubt it since everything else runs fine).

Thanks

Theres a lot of downtime. They shld switch the frontpage server and the forum server ;). The frontpage is almost never down.

i have had the site down all afternoon

and now that it has come up most afternoons it seems to be down for and hour or two

[Movieman]

I think you have to remember that this is run from a high end DX3200 machine and needs to back up the DB often due to the amount of imput..I can imagine the effect of all the upped graphics on this server..I'm surprised that it runs as good as it does.

Perfect

Perfect

:confused: , good first post :p:

It's strange though as the downtime seems to affect different areas, atleast i think. As whenever i finally am aloud back in there have been posts during the time it appeared to be down :confused:

Maybe FUGGER could start a thread where we should all chip in for a new server, i know i wouldnt mind lending £10 or so, especially if it ran rossetta :rolleyes: . Just a thought :toast:

downtimes pretty bad where im at too, usually going over an hour.

[ex2cib]

it has been down a lot lately, but i dont think its server issues, the current server is one of FCG's older rigs, a good DX rig
it could be, but i think there's more in this than simply a hardware issue

[Durzel]

Does the server reboot every day or something?

[Jupiler]

Fugger made some hardware changes, but the database is having problems.
He's working on it and tries to have it fixed as soon as possible.
All we can ask is a little patience. :)

[xerogenesis]

hope he gets it worked out soon or ill have nothing to do at work haha, i mean sure i have things to do here but who really wants to WORK?

[nn_step]

Because Fugger wanted to overclock and Benchmark the Servers..

[NickS]

LOL. That'd be leet, but yeh the downtime really does get quite annoying especially when you're bored out of your skull :(..

lol deffinatly unstable.

sometimes i go in next room and check the site from there, incase its my pc :slap:

[jinu117]

What part of database is unstable? Backup process? The reorganizing indexes? Or the application link to it itself (gasp!). My primary job happens to be DBA.
