nuxx.net Back Up
February 23, 2008

Well, even though rowla.nuxx.net made it to an uptime of 500 days back on the 11th, that didn’t last. Today Waveform unexpectedly moved my box to their new data center, causing a bit of an unexpected outage. As you can see in the bandwidthd graph above there was a period of time during which the server was unreachable.
I was ssh’d in at the time talking to people on #llamasoft when things just up and went away. It seems that Waveform simply pulled the plug on the boxes and moved them. Thankfully mine came back up safely.

That’s a pretty irresponsible thing for a service provider to do to their customers. Any apologies or indication that it was a mistake or won’t happen again?
Yeah, that’s the first particularly worrysome thing they’ve done.
If I can find another provider which is comparably priced and somewhat local, I might think about moving to them… I’ve been seriously considering building up a new 1U anyway, so that’d make the move easy.
