Re: On-Rev server Pancake problems - old backup restored?

2015-04-30 Thread Dave Kilroy
Glad to hear that some of you are getting your data back - I'm still
completely stuffed.

No email, no websites, no mysql, no web services - I can't sign into cpanel
- for most of yesterday my websites were showing 13-month old data, but from
sometime in the evening all data has gone.

Are there any others like me or am I the last one? At the moment I can't
imagine staying with on-rev - years ago I bought a founders account with
on-rev and am regretting that decision now

Perhaps on-rev should close down and outsource it services to a bigger
outfit...

My sites are still showing 2014 data, this is taking way too long to sort and
the feedback from LiveCode has in my opinion been very poor.

Surely it would not be too much trouble to have server status issue info out
up on the server status page?

Re: On-Rev server Pancake problems - old backup restored?

2015-04-30 Thread Richard Gaskin
It's a fun article, but somewhat unfair to all the other HDD 
manufacturers.  BackBlaze puts their drives through a level of use far 
beyond what just about any home user will ever need, so seeing shorter 
MTTF for Seagate doesn't make me not want a Barracuda.


TechReport recently ran a stress test on SSDs, and like BackBlaze's HDD 
tests all units performed beyond specs:




Never hurts to buy the best, but for most of us second-best, or 
even-third best, is probably going to serve us well - unless we're 
running a server farm, then I'd stick with Hitachi. :)

Thanks Richard, good to know.

I replaced a harddrive in a 2008 Macbook Pro early last year with a HGST 
and it has been running solidly ever since.


Might be time to investigate some for the mini server we use internally.

Hi

I wanted to keep this off the mailing list but I'm still have no 
email capacity or website.. and no answers from on-rev support.


Getting a bit anxious so hopefully someone has their service going 
and can answer a few questions.


As far as I know Pancake has been migrated to Jasmine.

I've changed servers in my email client to Jasmine to receive the 
years worth of email that went missing (minus a day or two). Still 
can't receive or send yet.


Currently the affected domain name is still pointing to Pancake so 
hopefully it's just waiting until that DNS issue propagation finishes.


But I have asked whether I need to make changes to my domain's 
nameservers, which are pointing to ns1.on-rev.com & ns2.on-rev.com.


If anyone is back online, besides email server changes did you need 
to do anything else?

IMHO on-rev is treated like a hobby and they get to it when they get to it.
Come on, some of the most brilliant minds in the world sit there in
Edinburgh yet you have single server down for several hours.

I don't get it.  Even my not so brilliant self ran a 10 server hosting

Re: On-Rev server Pancake problems - old backup restored?

It doesn't cost anything to ring the bell but time.  Since none of the guys 
from the mothership were there, it didn't even cost the plane trip over for 
them.

Re: On-Rev server Pancake problems - old backup restored?

2015-04-30 Thread Matthias Rebbe | M-R-D
I am seriously thinking of leaving the On-Rev platform.

I have several accounts, lifetime and payed ones on different servers.
In the past i always have born when there were problems with one of the servers.
I even felt negative comments about the reliability of the On-Rev platform as 
unfair and i defended RunRev and On-Rev.

But this incident now is one of many in the past. Please don´t get me wrong.

I do not blame David Williams. He doing what is possible. But my understanding 
is that he is the only one who is responsible for such bigger problems.
At least he is the one who replies to emergency support request regardless if 
at day or at night.

I do blame Runrev to not having extended their On-Rev staff and improve the 
On-Rev platform.

Btw: Does „ringing the bell“ at NASDAQ and showing ones logo cost money? If so, 
Runrev better would have invested that money into the On-Rev platform and the 
support staff.
It does not make sense to go for new customers also for On-Rev if you cannot 
handle it afterwards.

At this stage i cannot recommend On-Rev as a professional hosting platform 
anymore.

I am really pissed of now.

Matthias (who is now preparing to repair his sites in the hope no other old 
backup is restored)

Re: On-Rev server Pancake problems - old backup restored?

2015-04-29 Thread Alex Shaw

Hmm, I'm worried about my emails for the affected domain.

Because I primarily use SMTP, if they restore back to a certain point 
what will happen to all the emails which have already come in?


Should I be doing local backups of everyone's new emails now, as they 
come in?


Messy indeed.

I really hope these magic scripts they're working on do the job.

Been interesting though to see the state of the site over a year ago.

regards
alex
