Not sure if the general discussion HamWAN list (psdr) cares about outage notifications. Probably not. Here's one example, forwarded below. We also had an outage of Baldi a couple days ago during very heavy rain + wind. It was intermittent. I brought up a secondary link to Baldi in response to this, and have left it on to be used by the routers as a backup route when the primary uplink fails. We REALLLLY need to align that Baldi dish so this link doesn't fail. We're presently working off a side lobe, and the main lobe of the Baldi uplink is aimed @ Cougar Mtn instead. As cool as that is, it's throwing away signal. We've had some other edge/uplink router outages in the past, and have deployed self-healing scripts now to avoid any future occurrences of these. Overall, I'd say we're improving stability, not just chasing our tail. There's still a very problematic Paine-CapitolPark link. Could be mitigated with dish alignment. --Bart -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Netops] Short Monitoring Outage Date: Sun, 12 Jan 2014 10:16:35 -0800 From: Nigel Vander Houwen <nigelvh@gmail.com> To: netops@hamwan.org Looks like we had a short outage for Cacti (and by extension, the map on the homepage). MySQL stopped itself due to low RAM. I've bumped the RAM allocation from 512MB to 1GB and restarted things. All is happy. Also, syslogging continued without issue. FYI. -- Nigel Vander Houwen
