Forum Maintenance tonight 11-8-2020 @ 2100 PST *Completed*
-
Thanks everyone for coming on and testing - responses have been awesome so far!
So awesome in fact I need to do some behind the scenes upgrades. At 2100 West coast, Midnight Eastern I'll be taking this server offline to redo somethings and up specs. We've been limping along today on a 2 core, 1gb memory Ubuntu server and we're overloading it.
Should be back online by morning!
-
I'll log off to avoid further stress. Meaning posting resource heavy gif and other nonsense to prematurely test how things are going to work.
Best of luck with the upgrade.
-
Understood! I'm still amused that thing has handled all this as well as it has!!!
-
Yeah, this is a good problem to have haha
-
@rallydarkstrike @interstate366 Yes- a very good problem. It's handled it better than I expected already. Hopefully the iteration we end up with tomorrow will be stable for a while.
-
Bump to remind folks in 2 hours I'll be taking the forum offline for maintenance
-
@everyone - T-45 minutes from me taking down the forum! Still more traffic than I'd expect at nearly midnight EST on a Sunday.
-
@jminer I pinned this post BTW.
Looks like @everyone doesn't work as a mention. Was just looking into that and found this:
https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-mentions/issues/93Seems to imply there is a way to @ mention groups...I wonder if that is disabled by default and if there is a default group FOR @everyone...?
-
@RallyDarkstrike I thought I saw an @everyone somewhere so I guessed. I haven't done any work to groups yet other than mods, we may be able to setup an all users group and call it on occasion.
-
@jminer maybe I'll add that to the Feedback thread before I go to bed as a reminder for later?
-
@RallyDarkstrike Sounds good
-
@jminer copy that. Signing off for the evening. Thanks for all your hard work!
-
@Shop-Teacher Happy to help build us a future home
T-10 minutes now!
-
Maintenance complete - going to bed now. Hopefully everything functions fine tomorrow when it gets hit again.
