I've just been working on one of our Cache servers fixing a problem. There could have been a few cache related odditites showing up as a result of the problems over the last half hour.

All should be back to normal now.

did you say half an hour?

ars had cache problems for 15+ hours. and it kept up until after this post. I got on at 10 am and at midnight (central) and it was happening bith times yesterday.

(its cleared up now I think)

We had a similar problem happen once again, Jeff and I have taken another stick to the server. We'll see if there is some better way of dealing these cache server problems in the future.

(Our code currently checks for corruption in the cache table and clears it out when it finds it, though it seems there is a problem when more than one application server tries to "clear it out" at the same time).

We've had at least 3 reports of down time in the last day or so on the FT forums. Is it the same problem or something different? The folks I have to answer to are wondering what's up.

Hello Dorothy. The cache issues peter is talking about are on the Egypt cluster running the 2.1.4 code. FT is on Shang cluster.

There was a major network problem on the US west coast early Th morning -- which I suspect was the source of the problem [I thought I CC'd you on this one -- but obviously not. Sorry about that.]
