Posted April 5, 2020 Around 11am CEST the Celebration server experienced an outage. The cause: MySQL 8 has a default of 30 days retention on binary log files, which in our case are of a substantial size. They filled up the data drive that stores Celebration's game data and resulted in errors from both the map saving and the database. The server seems to have shutdown cleanly as soon as this occurred. The resolution: We've reduced the default and increased the size of the drive. We do not need 30 day retention of binary log files due to our server backup method. Other notes: Max was unable to restore services due to the nature of the outage and I was unable to be reached prior to 8am Eastern US time. I will be working with Max on a direct communication method that will cut through my phone's Do Not Disturb time so that I can be reached. We enabled sleep bonus for Celebration only upon the restart due to the duration of the outage. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 5, 2020 I have to confess I tutted a few times. But as I had completely run out of sleep bonus and now have 5 hours, I withdraw all my earlier tuts. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 5, 2020 Wouldn't we need to give him more "sleep powder" so he doesn't need to sleep? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
