Sat Feb 22 19:01:40 PST 2003 — Load balancer woes. We had quite a few intermittent failures of the load balancer link today, upon which we worked throughout the day to try to isolate the cause. We may have isolated the problem to a faulty cable, which has been replaced. We are monitoring to see if this change has fixed the problem. -Scott and Nathan
Update Sat Feb 22 20:30:40 PST 2003: Nope, that didn’t solve the problem. We have moved the load balancer off of the switch it was on and onto a core switch port, which is made by a different vendor. Hopefully this will at least eliminate possible cross-vendor incompatibility… -Scott and Nathan
