Sorry for downtime again

[Pekka]

There is apparently some overheating problem in the server SAS SCSI adapter, it froze again today - couple of hours were needed to make a disk check before reopen.

I'm working on finding out the root cause of these problems, may need to change that card.

thanks for all your hard work El General! :D we all appreciate it!!

[DDA]

Twice in a so short time frame is too much for my heart. I'm getting a pacemaker implanted tomorrow!

Seriously: thanks for your great work señor General!We are very grateful for the great place you provide us ;-)

But don't do this again!!!! :p

[John_B]

Pekka,
Glad you got it working again :)

[jsmoove007]

Thanks for getting it back up and forcing me to work while it was down.

[Belmondo]

Apparently it happened while I was sound asleep. I wasn't at all bothered by it.

Tom, are you still in hibernation? ;) :D

[Jon]

Meant I got to eat breakfast in peace . . . Can you do it again tomorrow?

[Belmondo]

Tom, are you still in hibernation? ;) :DSelf-imposed. I suspect I'm contagious, and don't want to infect the local population.

[jb_browneyes]

wow.. since there's 3 of you here let me just ask out of curiosity

"why do you do it?" Don't get me wrong I'm glad you all do. the forum is free so I assume you don't get paid. are all the thhings you do just done out of the goodness of your heart?

[Belmondo]

I do it for pride and friendship. POTN is one of the best forums on the net of any kind, and I'm proud to be a part of it. I've made a number of friends here, and my time on the forum is some of the more pleasurable of my day.

The Bentley company car is nice, too.:rolleyes:

well this is the forum I've ever been a part of (or even seen for that matter) so I guess It really doesn't matter if I understand the innerworkings. I was just curious.

your response warms my heart.I can’t express to you just how much joy I get from this forum. It is a wonderful place to learn. Thank you all so, so much.

JenniferThank you, Jennifer. The self-satisfaction of being involved with such a great thing is our compensation, but the occasional expression of appreciation such as yours are our bonuses.

where I live there are VERY few resources to learn. I have read countless threads and am always impressed with you mods for your patience, knowledge, and the effort you put into helping us misguided newbies (Even when the questions are annoying and redundant.) :)

Masochism, pure and simple. :{)#




Actually, to pay forward from all the people I've learned from. I moderate on three distinctly different boards, and all, I believe, because I've taken that approach as a member (and because I know my stuff, which has to be a given).

[jb_browneyes]

"Masochism" no fair you used a big word lol. now I gotta look it up!

[jb_browneyes]

1. The deriving of sexual gratification, or the tendency to derive sexual gratification, from being physically or emotionally abused.
2. The deriving of pleasure, or the tendency to derive pleasure, from being humiliated or mistreated, either by another or by oneself.

Hi Pekka.

Just curious how much the SAS card costs.

Really appreciate your efforts!

I echo this comment and others.
