Wazoo Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Actually, some cell phone services do work in the building - most of the GSM carriers for instance. I have servers there myself and I've been there many times. Phones and stuff not working isn't a security thing... it's a building construction thing. That's a solid metal and concrete building w/ dual layers of metal sheeting. I understand ... my backgound was working in buildings specifically built / upgraded for that pesky "emission" problem <g> That this building was spec'd for the opposite travel of electrons is something that most folks don't care about <g> Funny thing is this building has a extremely fancy backup system that should have mitigated the power problem. They even purposely sell themselves as "not requiring battery backup systems". (Even though I said "uhh huh" and proceeded to install them in all our racks anyway.) Power in the building runs through "constant power systems" - which is basically a big flywheels that continue to spin by enertia and generate power until the generators kick in. And each customer is supposed to be served by redundant PDUs. So it was either a very big power outage or Quality Technology Services has been slacking off since they bought the business from ITC^Deltacom. 42159[/snapback] I'd have to agree, but .... hmmm .. it was the edeltacom page I remember reading .....

bcstones Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Me too. The webmail system still seems hosed, but at least mail is flowing now. I'm not sure why I couldn't do port 25 connections to the MX server....it probably doesn't like my rudimentary "fakemail" skills. ;-) 42155[/snapback] 18 April '06 15:24 I was able to log on just now....thank you. I'm sure that someone is almost bald now from tearing hair out in frustration. Again, I appreciate all your work...this is the first time I've experienced this kind of "down"-age. I repeat - my thanks to all who got us up and running again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btech Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 When I logged in through the SSL address, I was able to connect to the reporting link and reported the messages that were in my held folder.

geodosch Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I am still unable to get to the Webmail page. I've also tried going to the secure site, as some have had success with, but either simply gives me a blank page. 6 hours and counting, and the only 'official' news is that there was a problem, but everything is fine. That was posted 3 hours ago, and from where I sit things don't look any better than they did at 11:30 EDT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merlyn Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 18 April '06 13:25 Merlyn, Hate to tell you, but I can't access webmail....and I can get to all other portions of the site, just can't get to webmail. 42108[/snapback] It has been working for ma all day. This is currently posted on the webmail page: [14:19 EDT] Earlier this morning, the data center we are hosted in had a major power failure which affected their normal backups systems. This means that most of our servers were powered down. Not everything came back up automatically, which means that mail has been delayed and logins have been difficult. We're monitoring it now, but it appears that everything is back up. Logins should be normal and delayed mail is flowing in. We apologize for the problem and will be investigating this with our data center to make sure it doesn't happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I have stuff in this same datacenter and I occasionally wave at the SpamCop system when I'm passing through. Security there is pretty tight, so Marwan is just doing his job. 42098[/snapback] Were you aware of the major outage there reported on the webmail site by 4PM EST?

I've been meaning to switch to gmail for a while, now I have my reason. :-( 42161[/snapback] Gmail is sh**e compared to SCMail, because I can forward all my mail accounts to SCMail and send mail out AS those accounts... you cant do that in Gmail, you can only put a "reply to" address in the email, which, IMO, is far mor unprofessional that this outage was.

Wazoo Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Should that be "Teporting Server sRatus"? I'm looking now... the "Parsing & Reporting Server status" and "Reporting Server Status" links are new to me, but I admit I don't check this forum every day (or even every month) lately. So eventually I will get a chance to see what they SHOULD look like... Right now there's no graphic. 42089[/snapback] Yeah, I edited that post a while back .. strangely enough, with all the running around I've been doing today, I have no idea just when the graphic came back <g> .... but it's working now ... note that it is a link also, leading to a combined stats graphics page.

turetzsr Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 <snip> I was expecting some important information about a job today. It's just my luck that the system crashes today of all days. <snip> 42099[/snapback] ...Please remember, e-mail is not now nor has it ever been a guaranteed delivery mechanism. If a particular bit of communication is important to you, please be sure that the party that you expect to contact you has an alternate means. Thanks!

DavidT Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Actually, this morning I've been seeing delays in pop response, and it just took a lot longer than normal to log into the webmail system. Either the server is under an unusually high load, or there are connectivity issues, perhaps even local to the colo facility. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captid4 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 The web interface seems to be crawling today. In the last couple of days, I have also experienced problems attaching documents (DB unknown error) and opening messages (An unknown error occured). The database may have some corruption due to the hard shutdown earlier in the week. I sent an e-mail to the support address, but I have not heard anything back yet. Is anyone else having these problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
