E-NDMS News and System Status

E-NDMS Database Server Down

Update: E-NDMS is working normally now. This is the first significant failure we've experienced using Amazon's Cloud Computing services, and I will follow up with them this week to determine the cause of the outage.

The E-NDMS database server went down sometime yesterday. So far, attempts to revive it have failed so I am now building a new server from backups. I will post an update when the system is available again.

Maintenance This Afternoon

I will be performing some system maintenance this afternoon. The system should remain available during most of the work, but I will have to take the server down at least once. I will post an Admin message 5 minutes prior to the system becoming unavailable to give you a chance to save your work.

E-NDMS Traffic in May

As you may or may not know, we implemented a fairly drastic server upgrade on May 29th. Given the feedback I've received today, it appears the upgrade has been successful. With a bit of a chance to breathe, I decided to take a look at our traffic and thought a graph comparing May to April traffic was interesting.

Heavy Traffic This Week

E-NDMS is experiencing an 100% increase in traffic this week over last week. As a result, I have run into a few capacity issues with the new server configuration. Please bear with me as I adjust performance parameters to meet the increased demand.

Performance Issues

After a couple of support issues regarding report performance, I discovered that the scripts responsible for generating Management Reports were not running to completion each night like they have in the past. We will work to restore daily report generation, but for the time being, Management Report data will only be generated once a week on Friday. This means you should only expect to see new data each Monday.

Wednesday, December 3 Postmortem -- Mea Culpa

As everyone who accessed E-NDMS on Wednesday knows, it was ridiculously slow, arguably slower than it has ever been. While evaluating some temporary options to get back to where we were last week, I tried to edit a file on the new server and got a "disk full" error message. After further investigation, I found the disk was indeed full due to the database driver being in Debug mode...a setting I made late Sunday night while trying to repair a system problem. Now that it is turned off, the system seems much more stable (we survived the lunch rush today) and is performing more like I expected.

Maintenance

JAG Field Services will perform scheduled maintenance on e-NDMS on Fridays between 4:00 and 5:00 CST.
