new award for the absolute dumbest password policy I have ever heard
They have a lil website where it says what you can't and what you must have in your password. But the actual check the website performs is directly contradictory to that
So without willfully violating the password policy you can't set a password
This is a multibillion dollar company btw

ah, Solar Flare's running correctly.
 
yep
i just kicked it
 
and Lunar Eclipse is back in standby mode
(I manually pulled it :P)
 
We have only 4 instances, is that enough?
 
yeah it should be
there'll be 5 once I turn on Supernova again
power outage made it go down
 
while I don't think they can fail simultaneously, the number is much smaller than what it used to be
@ThomasWard oh, i see
 
indeed it is, not sure why that was the case though
I mean, I could probably technically run a Smokey on the Flovis instance but :P
 
5:17 PM
And then Flovis will run out of CPU credits quickly :P
 
it's not an EC2
it's a VPS
no CPU credits :p
Art moved Flovis to a VPS that I was going to retire but am now keeping since it's been repurposed
no more CPU Credits problems :)
and so long as I'm not pegging the CPUs at max it can keep on using the CPUs as long as it wants.
 
Good move :P
 
this way Flovis keeps running, and isn't dependent on EC2 credits
and for $30/quarter it's really not that expensive :P
 
Hender said he ran Smokey on a t2.nano instance, which looks quite tight on CPU credits
 
mhm
In my own analysis of what I've got, in terms of what I need and such, EC2 is always too expensive compared to a VPS. Makes sense if I need something quick to use an EC2, but I have a number of VPSes that I make use of so
and also an entire virtual cluster at my apartment running on VMware virtual machines :P
 
5:21 PM
$30/quarter for a VPS? Fair pricing

I have a perpetual vSphere Basic license
said virtual 'cluster' is just a group of ESXi boxes working together centrally managed by vCenter
and i actually have been consolidating to just one box so soon I won't even need the other servers, yay I save on my electric bill that way
 
5:23 PM
You work as a SysAdmin?
 
full time employed as an IT Security and Systems Specialist (in a nutshell)
but I do sysadmin, network design and maintenance, IT Security work, a bit of everything really :P
 
hmm, sounds like a rare species of omnipotent IT specialist
 
indeed.
IT Security thoug hneeds the network knowledge to back it
and I'm a certified linux sysadmin so I know my way around Linux expertly :P

@Makyen for the tenth time today, you mean
that's happening on Henders as well.
for the thing flapping
did it fix itself or is it still dead?
 
@ThomasWard Yeah, it appears to be fixed. I don't know what's going on, but it's affecting (if it's only one thing) multiple SD instances, with code that's 20+ days apart (Henders/EC2 vs. teward/Solar Flare), which tends to point to something with MS. If it is, then it's something that results in SD instances to going off-line for 10s of minutes.
 
8:21 PM
@Makyen no I meant the "It's Down" problem
not the variance in revisions on each
yeah I doubt it's a Smokey instances going offline issue
it sounds like an MS problem (cc @ArtOfCode) but I can't tell
