Slrpnk.net outage
-
That's unlucky, but is it hosted at someone's home?
Sort of yes. It is a homelab a few people have access to, but currently they are all either on holiday or on extended work related travel. It seemed like an acceptable risk as everything worked smoothly for years.
-
This is a very big issue for a server no mater when it happens. A sever you can’t reset and you go on a trip ridiculous.
You're going to want to try "my little Internet" by Fisher-Price before using this adult Internet we're on.

That makes sense, given the ethos of your instance, I hope you can fix it a soon as reason allows!

Alt account of poVoq@slrpnk.net here.
Our instance is currently down and I can't get remote access to the servers. It appears that there might have been a hardware failure of the main firewall, which is the one thing I can't work around remotely.
I am still trying a few things, but I am not very optimistic that I can get access.
The really unfortunate part is that just now I am on one of my rare work deployments abroad, so I also can't access it physically during the next few weeks and my usual back up that could restart it is not available either.
As something like that never happened in 3 years operating the servers, I thought I can risk it, but murphy's law seems inescapable
I will try to keep you posted here on any updates, but probably there will not be much I can do for a while. Really bad timing
Edit: we might use this "opportunity" to migrate the instance to Piefed, which has been an idea for quite some time now. I will keep you posted on that.
That sucks. Thank you for your time and running the instance. Gonna miss you all like hell while you're gone.

Thanks for the info, a healthy amount of real life awaits then.
I knew it was running on solar energy and old hardware so I guessed something like this had happened.
If you need fail-over to awaken a backup system when the primary fails, things can be designed.
-
I know, I'm the one who approved your application.
You happened to sign up right before we've had our first particularly bad issue in 3 years. Unlucky, yes, but it's a bit out of order (IMO) to say we're a poorly managed instance based on that, especially seeing as you lost nothing besides the time it took to write your application.

Does Lemmy let you retroactively deny applications?

As a matter of fact it does, actually

Sorry to hear that! My main account is on slrpnk.net. But don't let it stress you out, "solarpunk" says "punk" which implies "DIY" which means this sort of thing happens. Much better to have an instance run by an admin who truly cares, rather than some soulless corporation.

This is making me want to create an alt on slrpnk.net , since you're so chill and communicative about issues.

Alt of ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net chiming in, thanks for giving us the sitrep, poVoq!
This is an unusually unlucky set of circumstances, but for the Solarpunks who find their way here, let's try to make the best of it. If you don't already have an alternative account somewhere, you may want to create one to use until we're back up and running. lemmy.dbzer0.com, sopuli.xyz, or lemmy.cafe are some solid choices to consider. After that, you may want to favorite poVoq's post here so you can check back on any news.
Even without our home base, we can still share the solarpunky stuff we find and create around the threadiverse (though as Tofu mentioned, maybe this could be a time to take a breather to be refreshed when we come back
).Besides, if the past is any indication, time will fly by and we'll be back before you know it!
Lol love the new username, fitting!

Good stuff, Sergio!
-
Lol love the new username, fitting!
Yarr, thank ye kindly, Lazy
-
Yeah I had plans to set up something like that, but always other priorities and in this specific case I could maybe access other internal servers but i would need KVM access to reboot the firewall or some other way to cut physical power. And exfiltrating hundreds of GBs of lemmy database wouldn't work over such a small pipe either.
This is something that even larger corps struggle with. My old company would buy some other company, lay off a bunch of people, others would quit, and then it was shocked Pikachu faces all around when That One Thing stopped working in an office they turned into a ghost town and, well, no, nobody was going to be there until Monday morning to power cycle etc. True lights out/OOB reachability is WORK. And there's always going to be a SPOF somewhere that requires hands on-site.
Do what you can, when you can. And thank you for all that y'all have done so far.
-
Good luck and all the best. Time to touch grass, everyone
You mean create an alt, right?
-
My loss of time is small true. I will just move on. But keep in mind new users may not be as knowledgeable as myself.
Knowledgeable? Lmao
-
Alt account of poVoq@slrpnk.net here.
Our instance is currently down and I can't get remote access to the servers. It appears that there might have been a hardware failure of the main firewall, which is the one thing I can't work around remotely.
I am still trying a few things, but I am not very optimistic that I can get access.
The really unfortunate part is that just now I am on one of my rare work deployments abroad, so I also can't access it physically during the next few weeks and my usual back up that could restart it is not available either.
As something like that never happened in 3 years operating the servers, I thought I can risk it, but murphy's law seems inescapable
I will try to keep you posted here on any updates, but probably there will not be much I can do for a while. Really bad timing
Edit: we might use this "opportunity" to migrate the instance to Piefed, which has been an idea for quite some time now. I will keep you posted on that.
This is actually great timing, i'd say. Just now most of the northern hemisphere is starting into summer. At least i deeply feel it on a personal level that summer is arriving. I take this as a gift from the universe that directs me towards touching grass, and going swimming. Enjoy your summer, you all! Connect with your local community, if you can.

Okay I touched grass and now I'm bored and itchy
