fucked up the certificate replacement :( all working now. sorry!

EU systems are back without any package loss... It's not so easy to find hoster, that will accept everything that is here, AND are stable.

we do have a massive package drop between the EU frontend and our backend. not sure why (at least for now); access from other sources to the VPS seem fine; hopefully it won't be blackholed due to suspicisous traffic. until then - rerouted everything to our asia servers. Perhaps we need more...

well.. one of our frontend-systems has hit 100% hdd usage. So hopefully this was the only problem. I freed some space and adjusted the size of the cache on the EU-Nodes. 10GB Storage for the whole system including caches is probably a bit too tiny :/ Hopefully this helps; if not i need to...

and database-communication errors :/ not sure where they came from... hopefully a restart was enough. seems to be back online

rebuilding search-index. sorry, totally broke down due to an error in the datacenter. edit also fixed mails ... i hate that the VPN changes ip -.- edit2 favicon is back Configuration broken ... edit4 Search-index is back online - search should now work as expected - sorry, that it took me...

i'm going to rebuild the caches. hopefully this will help :/ at least i still got the favicon :/

Asia Servers are down ... moved all to the remaining ones :( i need to automate this -.- Asia servers are under DDOS. Sometimes outages are expected :/

Transfer complete. Attachment upload is reenabled and should work again normally. i only added about 250GB at the moment. Let's see how long this will last. At least i now know what i did wrong and why we had to do a desaster recovery :/ Attached the transfer-speeds (take into account...

of course i had to fuck up the hdd-resize... desaster recovery is running. Unfortionately it's slow - really slow; about 1.5MB/s so expect broken attachments, until the sync is done. in the meantime i'm going to look out for a new backup -.- Also... mail is working again... edit also...

Disk has hit 100% (so we are now officially hitting 1TB of Data O.o) I'm in touch with the DC to add more space. I will report back.

The load balancer to our backend has some severe problems... I probably need to boot them into rescue mode or even reinstall the two nodes. if that happens expect downtimes :( I will start this procedure probably Wednesday next week

and hoster fucked up again. main database-server did crash... rest of the cluster is configured read-only

well.... provider did have some hughe hickups. Not exactly sure what has happened :/ but it crashed the database - twice. But replication is still up and running. It's a little bit fishy :/ perhaps the internal network crashed temporarily and something broke let's hope for the best?

Mail-Server is back online it took a while because of personal issues. There may still be some problems. For E.g. mail.ru is blocking the IP (I already asked for a removal) but Microsoft accepted - google seems to be fine, too. at the moment the mail-queues are being emptied out. Hopefully...

*sight* and now the mailserver has some strange behaviour... i can't even access the system anymore. hopefully they didn't do something with it... So... no mail notification at the moment -.- chompy is informed to take a look a the hoster edit Mail-Server is gone for good. I need to reinstall...

sorry for the unplanned outage. hopefully database is now back to 100% operation

at least 1 part is back up. the 3rd node is somehow totally crashed and it seems like a reinstall didn't help... toDos: check backup, rebuild the 3rd note edit done

Nice one. first we have a problem with the mail-servers. now our database-cluster crashed :/ main-system is back online - but we are missing replication & backup at the moment. Expect another downtime to rebuild the cluster :/

contact form is running again - i think.

mail-server is up and running again. errors are still expected - also check your spam folders

Hi, if you are waiting for a mail ... our mail-server is a little bit ill - we are working on it. ETA? absolutely no idea :/

Asia servers are down :( moved everything to eu

there could be the possibility that the database switched to read-only mode i'm not sure why -.-# sorry about that. everything is back online

routes are back! Asia Servers are back to the DNS system. Let's hope it won't break again in the next few days, because i won't be able to access the internet with more than edge-speeds.

some severe errors with our asia servers. one asia server is able to reach part of the load-balancer, but not the other one the 2nd asia server doesn't reach any of the two systems Routed everything through europe :/ I hope this is just some "minor" BGP has fucked up thing :/

unfortunately the media gallery did get broken when we upgraded from xenforo 1.x to 2.x i tried to bring it back - but it was a huge mess (new database structure, new storage path, new storage format of the files. After a "good guess" and multiple tests, I somehow ignored it (it was about 3GB...

asia frontend is down :/ see: https://status.akiba-online.com/status If this won't be fixed in an hour or so, i will reroute all the asia traffic through emea (I should really automate this already) edit changed to emea only -> traffic went up again ^^'' I will need more different...

we got a replacement! were you affected of the fuckup I did now? (the first drop down to 0Mb/s is what I mean) messing with the DNS and also double-checking everything will still lead to a strange replaced : with _ which I didn't find the the first time I checked. sorry about that. New...

We lost our last Hoster for EU/US/everything-not-asia expect slow page-loading (after the DNS is updated for everyone) also ... we are again on the lookout for new servers :/

Hi, this will be back, as soon as the developer has fixed it for the xenforo version. if I now enable it, it will generate about 3k Errors per Minute.

Dark-Mode is back online & usable. sorry for all that got their eyes destroyed, while using the white theme.

sometimes it always happens at the same time. as you may know, we are hosting on a cloud. but a cloud is only some remote system - and the node where our main-database was hosted was shutdown about 11:45pm UTC. about 10 minutes after that, the database-vm came back up online - but I was...

We lost our servers in Asia. Expect a very slow site, since we have to route everything through Europe (and they will be overloaded for 100%) Sorry about that. Not sure, why they are down. I hope @chompy can figure this out, soon. Edit: Systems are back up running. Sorry about that. DNS will...

whops we did hit 99% hdd storage I needed to reorganize a little bit. Hopefully now all is working again :(

System is back again. Expect sluggish behaviour as long as the refresh of threads and useres is still ongoing. (we are doing 3900 queries/sec at the moment; but i predict it will take another ~8 hours to finish) Some thing have changed "under the hood" e.g. the cluster is updated and looks like...

yes, there exists a new dark theme since moving to xenforo2 in the left corner, change "UI.X Akiba" to "UI.X Dark Akiba" *closed* edit i did write this and then fucked up the style. ... it need an update -.-

as you probably have noticed (except, if you are hitting the Asia Servers) we were down a "little" bit. we are sorry for that - there was a mail-goes-to-spam-problem -.-

I've added another layer of traffic routing to not get hit by traffic limits. Please report any errors you are facing. edit sometime in the future I have to do some maintenance on the database-servers. So there will be a downtime for some time... probably about 1 - 2 hours. but I don't know...

^^' the hover functionality on the thread-image is not yet available. unfortunately i didn't had yet the time to recreate this. But it is still on my to-do list. the default hover-effect on the thread-title is working

ahahaha... messing with the DNS > https://www.akiba-online.com/threads/planned-offline-time-as-well-as-server-move.2000174/post-4379203 can lead to some very strange errors, like: fuck. there is no ssl-cert installed for the domain, due to using cloudflare-DNS <.< Theme-rebuild ist running. I...

Geo-DNS is enabled. I hope this will speed up the page-load for at least for a few of us. More or less it's like this: Asia and Oceania will be routed to the asia servers EU/Africa/North America/Antarctica will be routed to the europen ones. Everything will be provided an ip via round-robbin...

fuu####"§!"!! Database crashed even harder. I will change the whole DB-Setup in the next days. Until then: no cluster - perhaps something will be a bit slower; but it's proably hitting an asian server from the US

*sight* Errors in our Asia Frontend-servers looks like some routing issues. Nothing much I can do here :/ edit: Seems to be solved Sorry :/ also: changed the DB Loading strategy. Hopefully the cluster won’t break again.

Yeah! i did see this, but unfortionatly only around 10:00 UTC today. The DB-Cluster glitched. Never had this before :/ Perhaps I have to change the way we are now asking the database for queries (at the moment i'm splitting the requests on 2 servers) :( That's probably my fault. To resync the...

cloudflare want us to pay for enterprise, because we are using too much bandwidth for the free version. Our frontend-Servers should cache neaerly everything; but I don't have enough space to actually add all the pictures to the frontend-servers (around 750GB files)

it's getting out of hand <.< i've disabled the addon :/ @chompy: can we please just disable the delete and the pm? Checking the link is fine - but until it's not working 100%, we actually don't want to do something special.

actually all links from us direct should be in the do-not-check-list... but. i did find the error here :/ Checker said: Link Status Message - Invalid URL (Could not detect attachment ID from URL https://www.akiba-online.com/attachments/prtn-08-0-jpg.2286496/) they just try to cast everything...

Firewall crashed and put down all of the database-servers :/ resync did take some time. Worst case: we are now missing some posts that were posted about 1.2 hours ago (about 10:00 UTC) I did try to get the right cluster-node to be the donnor for the other two :( sorry for the inconvenience and...
