All the services > were unavailable for 8+ hours yesterday and it was incredibly disruptive. it's a completely unknown problem. what happens is something goes "bad" inside the vm's and it STAYS bad until you reboot the host. you do something like: ls and it hangs for 30 seconds or 40 seconds. if inside one of the vm's. you can restart the vm's all you like and this continues to happen so it has something to do with the host system and we have no idea why. the only solution i have found so far is rebooting the host. we can't sensibly have the thing auto-reboot as this is just asking for trouble. i have personally spent many hours trawling around trying to find what causes it. i've started and stopped vm's, i've trawled through logs. i have found nothing. i know beber knows about this too and this has been discussed on this mailing list too. beber has also dug into this and he doesn't know either. we currently have nothing to go on. so the ONLY solution is someone noticing and rebooting the host machine. i've already done this half a dozen time this year or so. normally it's me that catches it and does this it seems. it seems to kick in about once a month or so. it isnt bad ENOUGH to sink a huge amount of effort into beyond what has already been done, and it's really not sensibly automatically fixable. having a host just decide to reboot itself whenever it sees some situation is going ot be asking for reboot cycles and similar issues. so unless you have some idea of what is causing this and how to fix it... the solution is "complain and someone will reboot it" either irc or email or both. i was away from my desk at meetings until 5pm yesterday thus why i didn't catch it. > On Thu, Oct 6, 2016 at 11:09 PM Bertrand Jacquin <bertr...@jacquin.bzh> > wrote: > > > Unspanked™ > > > > On Fri, Oct 07, 2016 at 12:18:07PM +1030, Simon Lees wrote: > > > *** SPANK SPANK SPANK!!! > > > Enlightenment server is over capacity > > > > > > Please wait a moment and try again later. > > > For more information, take a look at #e on IRC, server irc.freenode.org. > > > > > > -- > > > > > > Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net > > > > > > Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek > > > SUSE Linux Adeliade Australia, UTC+9:30 > > > GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > > > engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > enlightenment-devel mailing list > > > enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel > > > > > > -- > > Bertrand > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > > engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > > _______________________________________________ > > enlightenment-devel mailing list > > enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > enlightenment-devel mailing list > enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
