Server outages
Half a day of downtime is bad, but two major outages in less then ten days are too much! It seems that Unixshell (barisione.org is a virtual XEN server hosted by them) is having some serious connectivity problems and they don’t know what redundancy is, even if on their web page they say:
Built-in redundancy through multiple redundant network connections and redundant router and switch configuration.
By the way, my server is finally back online!
Yeah, the unixshell# service quality has been increasingly patchy of late. The first 14 months or so were trouble free, but in the last 4 months I’ve gotten the impression that Tektonic favour Virtuozzo over Xen and are moving resources as such. This was the last straw for me and I’ll be moving somewhere else.
