Backup Server
« on: July 18, 2005, 01:04:30 am »
Why can\'t we set up a backup server now, and use it when the server\'s down?  

What would the hosting requirements for such a server be? It could just mirror the databases from the real server - about 10gigs?

Then we could just boot it up when we got laanx down and keep playing.

I\'m not much of a computer expert, but unless theres a way to copy and paste something from one server to the next, then PS staff won\'t bother with recoding everything, adding updates to it, etc.

Keeping one server up to date is hard enough! :)

But we do have a secondary server on the Fragnetics server that we can setup.  Right now it is to be used as a test server but depending on how quickly laanx resumes we may have to make other arrangements.

Remember, planeshift game runs better when server is turned on.

PS: Forget it, my 2nd post useless in 2 minutes. I\'ll better have a rest.
