The datacenter is Rackster

Indeed. Well, we all thank you for having the server. I myself have nabbed quite a few files from it.

No problem. The whole reason I started running the server was for text files and getting all the rare and old software just sort of happened from running the Hotline server all these years.

Just a heads up files on my server will be offline for a while today as I do this at my house:

nfs:/mnt/usb_hd/elitep/server# tar czf /nfs/drive4/preterhuman_downloads.tar.gz downloads

If it finishes before the datacenter staff leave, then I'll have it all back online. Otherwise it'll be sometime tomorrow around noon.

Will that tar.gz file be online tomorrow too?

I thought about doing that but since I have to make the archive at my house onto my home file server, I'd have no way to get it back to the datacenter as the server file drive is quite full. Some weird hardware problem prevents more than one USB hard drive to be plugged into the server, and the files drive is already taking up that spot.

The good news:

-rw-r--r--  1 netfreak netfreak 116617937538 2009-08-01 04:56 preterhuman_downloads.tar.gz

The bad news:

I can't take the drive back to the datacenter until staff are back there tuesday so the server will have no files for a few days.

OK... So I had planned to take the hard drive back to the datacenter today but this morning I discovered that one or more of the investors for the datacenter are petitioning the courts to begin bankrupcy proceedings. At this time I've decided to hold off putting the drive back in as it contains quite a bit more data which I do not have backups of. I will also be doing backups of the data still on the server right now just in case. I'll see how this unfolds before deciding on the next course of action.

That sounds dangerously like the fate of another web site, The Mac Garden. 8-o

I can guarantee I will be back online should the DC shutdown, but I may have to spring for a dedicated server somewhere remote and have to upload the entire archive myself. I just don't want to have the DC close and not be able to get my colo gear out, because if that happens I'm going to drive a stolen truck through the front of the building to get my server.

Tell them "I'll be back". And then DO IT.

 

[LCGuy]

And make sure you say it in a deep voice, and that you're wearing shades.

Actually i'd drive in, reverse out, then drive in again just to prove to them that you mean business. No chit chat, no fancy movie lines, just drive in, out, back in, get out, quietly walk up to your server, take it, back in the truck, reverse out and drive away.

Take pics.

Their building alarm system is shared with the money counting/storage place next door so police response would be fast. I would get in and get out.
