So I guess that will be 3 days without morning maintenance in EA Land? What are the insomniacs going to do without their alarm clock to go to bed? LOL

OT: The bf's bro-in-law brought over Season 1 of Lost and said he would "make" us addicted to it. We laughed at him. Unfortunately, he was right.

I am going to shut down EA-Land shortly and bring it right back. We are going to add hardware to the city.

Should be a short bounce but I will keep you informed.

Cheers,

I find it quite humorous how this was interpretted as "we are fixing the lag issue" or even "we are working on the lag issue" or even "we are working on improving EA-Land" lol

Boy are y'all gonna be sore when you find out the "new hardware" is just a tape library for backups during downtime....


so many conclusions have been drawn from that one little statement haha Hope y'all are right

No actually we are adding in 10 new computers.

And we think this will help lag. With software there are always other possibilities.

Nice to meet you by the way.

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

Only way we will know is when we bring it back up.... Seems like we almost got the last issue. If it turns out there is more I am going call this off till Monday.

Quick! Anybody know the Heimlich?!?! Hubby's outside and this post made me laugh in the middle of swallowing a bite of green beans. True addicts eat while at the computer but damn, I might have to rethink eating while reading potentially humorous threads, or potentially humorous posters' posts.


*cough* *sputter* *drinks some of the nearest drink to wash down the green beans --- OMG that was rum, shouldn't have chugged it* LMAO too funny, too, too funny.

So as of 16:55 server time, where do we stand? Are you going to continue working on bringing the new serves online? Are you going to abort? Just curious as to what you are leaning towards as your plan of action...

Sorry if you took my post as heckling, nowhere did I criticise nor attack anyone. I merely pointed out that conclusions were drawn that may possibly be far from accurate.

Lee has confirmed that those conclusions were correct, which pleases me greatly.

I also don't think anything I said was sarcastic in meaning, tone, or intent, I was pretty straightforward, perhaps a dictionary will clarify "sarcastic" for me as I must not fully understand what it means (note: that, btw, WAS sarcasm)

Valid question.. I have the attention of IT, NetEng, SOUnix, and EA-Land team.

Keeping the presure on them helps get it solved faster but must be balanced against if we think we are close to last issue.

We are checking 3 of the boxes that did not want to connect to our network... 4 issues have been resolved. 1 appears to remain. If there is a demon after this one we will call it off and issue restart on EA-Land.

The thinking is it will help and let us double load. But the only way to be sure is to stand up the city with the hardware and see what happens.

there are always many possiblilities but we are doubling the hardware so....
