anyone having problems with Win6

I 'm not certain this is not malicious but merely a technical problem? These past two days my sites have been down 4 times that I know of for several minutes and longer. They have been coming back up relatively quicly so I have not bothered to submit a ticket. whats up?
kthx

WIN6 and WIN5 have both been pretty crappy lately. Here is my report for WIN6 for yesterday and today.

Keep in mind that this is checking on a 5-minute interval so a 30 second hiccup (at the moment that the check occurred) will show up as 5 minutes.

This message will self-destruct.
 
We have been doing quite a bit of work on Win6 while its Live to ensure no Win5 type issue develops on it.

But there were definately no more than 2 IIS resets on Win6 lasting more than a few minutes each in the last 24 hours. We use Nagios for internal reporting and I have only 2 reports with me for two issues
 
If I remove the 5-minute outage, and shave off four minutes from each side of the other outages to give the maximum benefit of the doubt since the checks are made only every 5 minutes, I get a total of 102 minutes (1 hour and 42 minutes). That figures the "Nov 21 2004 07:24 AM Nov 21 2004 07:29 AM" outage and the "Nov 21 2004 07:29 AM Nov 21 2004 08:04 AM" outage as a single outage since they are two types that occurred sequentially. If I further remove the "(first line of response: "")" downtimes, I get 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes). That's stretching statistics pretty hard in your favor to get that number.

Incidentally, those checks are done from two separate locations in the US and both must fail during a check cycle to result in a "down" condition. Also, I was checking 4 other JodoHost servers with the same service and they didn't all fail at the same time, which would have suggested that the checks were bogus or that your network had a total failure. In fact, 3 of the servers experienced zero downtime during the period I specified in the report.
 
devorem, there was definately no where close to 2 hours of downtime on Win6 in the last 48 hours. There is something terribly wrong with that reporting

What i believe atomi is saying is more accurate

I just saw your ticket asking why your site was down for 45 minutes. Your ticket is the only ticket complaining of 45 minutes of outage
 
I've not complained about any 45 minute outage via a ticket. I mentioned here in the forum that my uptime checking service recorded 5, 35, 30, 20, 15, 5, 10, and 35 minute outages in the last 2 calendar days. I've not submitted a ticket since Nov 17 2004 (40321). It was about WIN6 but there was no mention of 45 minutes.

Apparenly, if you saw a ticket with someone complaining about WIN6 being down for 45 minutes, then someone else is complaining.
 
I agree with Yash on this one. Have had only 21 minutes of outage in the period mentioned. What monitoring service are you using?

I was reading at a hosting forum that sometimes they can generate false alerts

I am sorry, that was another ticket about a PHP problem. Made a mistake there
 
is it by any change set to check a php page on win6? Webshell has been causing php some problems today, I am looking into that now.

However even with that, there has not been that much downtime on all PHP, mainly the webshell app.
 
It actually just looks at win6.myresellerdomain.com. That being true, it's an "under construction" page, of course. I figured that would be pretty simple and a generally more trouble-free check than if I had chosen a scripted page of some sort.
