    @AlwaysSkint said: https://status.virm.ac/ showed the outage - not loading just now. (Now back, displaying flat lines, for the duration.)

    That's the one I'm talking about, on our end we get more granularity, what I was talking about is that it was reporting CPU and other data while being "down" for a portion of the time so that means it had some connectivity as it doesn't send data and backdate it. Which means likely heavy loss, not "technically" down but so heavy that it did report it as offline because it didn't pass the validation of like however many multiple monitors across the globe steady for more than X minutes.

    Yeah, during the course of the "outage" (that was the effect!), the graphs were blank during that time period.

    It wisnae me! A big boy done it and ran away.
    NVMe2G for life! until death (the end is nigh)

  • I did definitely see a lot of packet loss and instantly at 100%. Maybe a bad BGP announcement or such?

    Cage nuts, I knew I was forgetting something.

    Power maintenance on dedicated servers, I don’t think anyone will be affected but just letting you know in case.

    When I make cappuccino in my coffee maker, I end up with a headache, like I'm drunk.

    Why did I buy a coffee maker? That's a year of a Virmach dedi.

    Edit: I'm bad at math. It's 3 coffee makers per year of a dedi.

    With sugar makes sense why you’d feel that way.

    I always kind of knew this from personal experience but I just looked it up to confirm it before sounding dumb. Caffeine either spikes blood sugar or something like that so if you also have sugar with it that can cause a bigger spike and blood sugar spikes feel like headache/drunk for some people I guess including me. Especially if you’re sensitive to one or both.

    Try taking it with the amino acid L Theanine to reduce the spike and if you are taking it with sugar try something else or less. L Theanine also balances out blood sugar, allegedly, with coffee. If it feels weird taking vitamins with your coffee then you can be British because the thing that has it naturally is tea including black tea. That part I didn’t know until now, I thought it was only green tea. Makes sense why I used to always drink black tea as a kid with sugar and it was fine but not with coffee.

    I need to swap out the IPs we have in San Jose, they cause a lot of weird issues. They happen to be from Iran I think originally.

    I don’t know if it’s related I’m just throwing that out there, what’s more likely that’s happened before is datacenter network engineers have misconfigured a second edge switch twice in the past randomly with no notification but they usually figure it out.

    I'd love non-iran IPs.Feel free to swap me over when ever.

    Apparently I didn’t make a mistake, I specifically didn’t get cage nuts because these rails for the E5’s don’t need them and I knew that because I have a set at home. Oops already ordered like 800 of them I guess we need to get more cabinets.

    Okay I just need approval from a thousand other people and I can start on it right away. Otherwise we have to plan it out and notify people and I keep pushing it out until I finish the automated system for that.

    Please, notify? That isn't in the low end spirit. Gotta swap IPs in less than 24 hours. /s

    We’ve done that too many times, it’s not exciting anymore.

    Playing Resident Evil 3 made it worse.

    Since a couple of years ago, I feel dizzy after playing some games in my PS4.

    This one comes up as HostHatch, they're from Iran? Just a joke, HostHatch leased it.

    Probably not it seems if they somehow own all the IPv4. Curious, how are you checking these? It seems like they at least moved these over to some representative in the EU. Is it just the shell company organizations you recognize?

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

    I know lots of Chinese guys using their "wind control score™" ,which is useless at all,but since our goal is checking announce history,let pass and ignore that

    you can check the ASN history here,this website don't provide any other language than Chinese,you can use google translate or just check its country flag

  • also,i remember some other folks said,if you got iran IP in ipxo,you can request to replace(not sure is it free or not,I remembered it is free)

    It's so cold here I actually need to start running benchmarks on the Epyc servers so I get some heating when I sit down on my laptop. Right now they're the ones with the strongest fans set up to pull to the back and I'm sitting in the hot aisle so I'm just getting blasted in the face at like 10C

    Show of hands, does anyone actually want the 9240-4i's in HW RAID?

    The more I learn about it and work with them the less of a fan I am, I've probably convinced myself to flash all of them to HBA mode and get it over with before I waste any more time and you guys waste yours on it because the end result, even if perfect, will likely be worse than software RAID in every way (the setup, "lack of" maintenance, failure, support overhead, and the whole part where it's not really a RAID controller it's more like the capabilities of an HBA marketed as a RAID controller which may have worked 10 years ago I guess. Like quite literally they also sold it as an HBA, that's why I can flash them to HBA.)

    @taizi just curious what's the issue with the IPs being from Iran

    @virmach hba mode for everybody!

  • @imok said: @taizi just curious what's the issue with the IPs being from Iran

    most of issues happened if you want to use as VPN,I heard someone was using airport(which is provide massive VPN servers),bro using japan server to login his HSBC Bank account,and got banned by bank because bank think it is Iran IP which is in sanction list.
    and that japan server IP originally from Iran ISP provider,rent though ipxo,and finally someone paying for that(the ban)

    Let's state this story in a different way.

    Some group of people working at a 200 billion dollar company got together and thought the best way to ensure they're not providing services to a customer in a sanctioned country is to ensure that they immediately ban a customer for accessing their account from internet in that region, and their best way to represent "accessing their account from internet in that region" is to pull third party data on where the IP address was at some point in history registered, without much verification, to that region.

    Yeah, I don't think the "issue" is the IP address at that point. Something more directly related though is that a lot of system administrators do similar "smart" security tasks, where they pull IP subnets manually once and map them to regions and ISPs, then block them from their network. Usually they don't even pull the list from a database, they just find someone's static list from 2017 on Github.

    true,these banks definitely using the IP database older than my grandma
