The Blog of Martin Birrane. The importance of regular server status reporting for unexpected events. The following scenario highlights the importance of having regular server status reporting in place for unexpected events. For a couple of months at irregular intervals we had users complain that some mails (not all) they’d been expecting from external users were arriving days later or were not arriving at all. Convincing the Security team was a problem however as everything looked fine on our end. Th...

The Blog of Martin Birrane. Intermittent port outages (link flaps) on Cisco 4500 series switch. Here’s a problem I initially suspected was being caused by our Cisco 4500 series switch or the software rev on the switch but it turned out to be something completely different. Here’s the background of the problem:. The cabling from our patch panels out to our office floor ports is all Cat5e Gigaspeed certified. The fact that two users were having the same problem was strange and initially had me worried as i...

The Blog of Martin Birrane. JetPack disappears after installing version 1.9.2. I has some problems updating to the latest version of Jetpack today – version 1.9.2. Normally the automatic install from within the Dashboard carries off without a hitch but today I had to dig into my GoDaddy FTP host storage to resurrect my Jetpack statistics. I started off the automatic install but at the point where the new Jetpack files are downloaded and unzipped the installation looks like it goes nowhere. Click to share...
