| 18:27.20 | blast007 | step 1) make the 30 users re-register |
| 18:27.37 | blast007 | step 2) there is no step 2 |
| 18:28.41 | JeffM | sounds like a plan |
| 18:35.38 | JeffM | how many people have logged in in the last month or 2? |
| 18:45.46 | blast007 | in December, 5412 unique IPs pulled the server list |
| 18:50.49 | KaadmY | that's a lot |
| 18:51.02 | KaadmY | considering only 1/10th of them actually played |
| 18:54.35 | blast007 | at least 565 unique user accounts joined in December (I say 'at least' because I'm only getting data from the MoFo server) |
| 18:54.55 | blast007 | joined a game server, that is |
| 18:57.29 | JeffM | and how many active accounts are in phpbb? |
| 18:57.37 | blast007 | that doesn't count unregistered. if I go by callsign, there were 3143 unique callsigns. |
| 18:57.44 | blast007 | define "active" |
| 18:58.23 | blast007 | afaik, when they authenticate against the list, it updates the 'last active' time on the forums for that account |
| 18:58.47 | JeffM | that helps |
| 18:58.58 | JeffM | so you could email everyone who was last active in a month or 2 |
| 19:03.19 | blast007 | depends if we're still talking about bus factor |
| 19:18.42 | JeffM | if like you had to say "hey everyone use this domain insterad" |
| 19:21.22 | blast007 | I was thinking more of a bus factor for me, not the domain :P |
| 19:22.05 | JeffM | oh |
| 19:22.33 | JeffM | it may be good for someone else to have some access to the bzbb data |
| 19:22.38 | JeffM | just in case |
| 19:23.21 | blast007 | having access to and having a copy of can be quite different things, though |
| 19:24.48 | JeffM | sure |
| 19:24.57 | JeffM | a copy would be a good starting place |
| 19:25.09 | JeffM | that way it could be remade with some reasonable backup of the data |
| 19:42.15 | blast007 | dunno if my current backup strategy would work well for that |
| 19:42.35 | blast007 | well, my upcoming one moreso |
| 19:42.58 | blast007 | currently I backup to the local disk on the server, then SCP it to my home system |
| 19:43.39 | blast007 | the new system will have less lcoal storage, so I was planning to just stream the backup data over SSH to my home server |
| 20:33.21 | JeffM | would you be willing to scp it to a vps one of us runs? |
| 20:33.31 | JeffM | then from there to your house |
| 20:34.07 | blast007 | I'd almost rather just do the backup twice |
| 20:34.16 | JeffM | ok, sure |
| 20:34.19 | blast007 | otherwise that's a bit too many "moving parts" for my liking |
| 20:34.24 | JeffM | that part is not the important bit :) |
| 20:34.28 | JeffM | sure sure |
| 20:34.56 | JeffM | how big is each backup? |
| 20:35.29 | blast007 | about 4GB for the bzflag.org stuff |
| 20:35.37 | JeffM | ok that's reasonable |
| 20:35.43 | blast007 | that's full backups (files, and databases dumps) |
| 20:36.14 | JeffM | I've got VPSs hanging around if you want to set that up |
| 20:38.23 | blast007 | actually that was the wrong server. it's 6.4GB. ;) |
| 20:38.32 | JeffM | still under 20 |
| 20:38.48 | blast007 | 5.7GB of that is the /var/www |
| 20:38.51 | JeffM | a 20 gig VPS could hold one/two backps |
| 20:38.57 | JeffM | and that'd be fine |
| 20:39.14 | blast007 | I'm sure there are far better ways of doing backups than what I'm doing |
| 20:39.20 | blast007 | like, something with rsync |
| 20:39.25 | JeffM | then if someone as a larger/more longterm storage idea they can pull from the VPS |
| 20:39.29 | JeffM | heh |
| 20:39.37 | blast007 | I'm just making tar.gz's |
| 20:39.41 | JeffM | I'm sure joevano and BulletCatcher can help you work somehting out |
| 20:42.38 | JeffM | basicly I've got a VM that's paid for like 9moths and cheap as hell to renew that is doing NOTHING |
| 20:42.46 | JeffM | you can dedicate it to back ups if you want |
| 20:44.16 | blast007 | I could make it a weekly backup instead of daily |
| 20:44.48 | JeffM | activity is quite low |
| 20:46.23 | JeffM | oooooooooo the town I'll probalby be moving to in april has Symetric FIOS |
| 20:46.49 | blast007 | neat |
| 20:46.52 | JeffM | could get up to 100/100 |
