STSF Server hiccup this evening

Started by Atragon9,

Posted · Report post

The server that hosts STSF became unresponsive this evening, 2/16, at 11:00 PM. It was rebooted and now all is well. Webbie will be looking into the issue to see if there is a root cause or if it was "just one of those things." (Like my fancy computer lingo?)

 

We apologize for the inconvenience.

There was a kernel panic caused following an automated system update. The system was rebooted and as it's been longer than a year since the last time the file system was checked, the OS forced a file system check (fsck). This added about 15-25 minutes to the downtime as the hard drive was scanned for possible bad blocks or file system corruption. (Think of this as a Windows scan disk and defrag.)

 

Regardless, it's online and all is well.
