mersenne.ca seems to be down :(
Is there anyone who can still access it?

Chuck · 2018-04-13, 12:16

I can't access the site either. It went down Thursday night around 10:30 EDT and has not responded as of Friday morning.

Still down as of 9 AM EDST He has a vast amount of data stored, somewhere. I wonder what he runs all of this on?

Hopefully there is a backup or 3 in reliable hands.

Can't be a Commodore 64 because mine never crashed.

Back up as of about 15:00 EDT

Chuck · 2018-04-13, 20:16

It was up for an hour and I reported some results, but it is back down again.

Sorry guys, my server isn't feeling well. It keeps crashing for reasons not entirely clear. The data center just recently replaced one HDD but I hadn't yet had chance to even start rebuilding the array before the server went down again. I'm still trying to figure out where the problem lies and get it resolved.

Server may be down for a little longer than expected. There's something more wrong than an aging HDD, perhaps faulty RAM, not sure yet. Data center ticket opened, hope they can find and fix the problem soon.

Depends on your definition of "vast", but yeah, it's about 600 million records taking up ~50GB (with indices). Of that, however, most of the data is replicating stuff already known from PrimeNet. The "important" bit is the TF effort above 1000M, which is not duplicated on any other server (but is backed up monthly to my home systems). Once the server is back online, if there's interest I can quite easily make this data available to anyone who might be interested (at a public URL, there's no secret data here).

Maybe Mike can keep a mirror of the data on the MF server. You also have a bunch of really useful tools, back them up too.

I'd blame it on Friday the 13th, except for the fact that the problem started late Thursday night.
