    System Backups

    Just because I'm a geek, and I enjoy being able to tell you folks what's been done for the forum:

    I *finally* got a system backup scheme running. With the way I'm backing up the database, if something really goes haywire or we get hacked, I'll be able to restore the forum's database to a certain time during the day. Say the hack happened at 1:00pm, I'll be able to restore everything up to 12:59pm in short order and we can all get on with our lives. I've got the full backup running nightly of both the forum web files and the database. It's been something that's been bugging me for a bit, but especially with the decent growth we've seen and the increasing activity, I felt it was getting to the point of being actively stupid to not do. Now, I've just got to figure out an off-site location to store the full backups (not the incrementals).

    I've also enabled some additional logging on the system. I've personally seen the system take up to 10 or 15 seconds just to post something. I'm gonna figure out what's going on. Anyone else had that random issue?

    Great work as always.

    No slow loads (or posts) here.

    Thanks, Jonas!!
    I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.

    Hey! IRS, take notes. If we can do it here, you can do it too haha.
    Lord, make me fast and accurate let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes, and those that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let NOT my last thought be, if I only had a gun, and lord if today is truly the day that you call me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass…
