He was going to build in miner warnings, so turning that into a system warning for himself wont be hard.
I bet the next hardware change will be flawless. Smiley

it will die once I think it's safe to go to sleep.  Sorry for the inconvenience, but I can't stay awake for 48 hours to monitor the server before getting some rest.

I have done a lot datacenter and sysadmin work and systems going down is a fact of life.  But any organization that has systems where finance is involved sets up a monitoring system that will alert the right people when things go offline.  I like your pool best and I would really like it to stay up.  I would be happy to volunteer time to set up monitoring for you or provide advice in that area. PM me if you are interested.

By now it should be assumed that if a hardware change (or in this case location & complete server change) occurs, it will die once I think it's safe to go to sleep.  Sorry for the inconvenience, but I can't stay awake for 48 hours to monitor the server before getting some rest.

Server is back up, fixed a few things that weren't setup the same as the old server, and fixed some DB settings to account for the dramatic increase in RAM available on the new server.

As much as I like this pool, I unfortunately will not be continuing to use it.  The frequency of server issues is really driving away users - I don't think I'm alone in this.  I can't even get a payout because the site thinks my Bitcoin address is invalid!  I'd love to use this pool again, so hopefully these issues will be addressed.

this was a bad weekend for btcguild because the old server was overloaded and there was another problem with the new server transfer so after these issues are solved everything will be back on track and even more users can join this pool because it's great.

Eleuthria has been doing a great job for the last couple of days and we cannot blame him for what's been happening to pool performance.

BTC Guild is really a great pool!

BTW, server is back online!

Me too, but need some kind of confidence that it won't break down when I'm sleeping and can't check on the pool every hour.

I was going to switch back over to BTCGuild tonight Sad

Hopefully you can work out whatever kinks are happening in the new server as I'd like to drop my MHash on your pool.

You mean mining in 2 pools with a single GPU?
Yes, GPUs are heavily multithreaded anyways and miners don't really use much memory, so there is no problem in running more than one mining program on a GPU. If you tune down priority of one pool, it will "failover" to that one, should the main pool have problems.

BTCguild not really stable for 2 days now, number of workers and hashrate dropped significantly this morning again.
What is up?

I still don't get why people mine in only a single pool anyways...

Just fire up 2 miners and you're golden!
Usually it even gives a little higher hashrate too.

BTC Guild has been excellent not only in how reliable it was during the initial test, but in the website's design.  Thanks, eleuthria for getting things running again, this time on a new dedicated server!!! Smiley  Hopefully this pool will not only help people realize a reliable way to generate coins, but can split up network power a bit more safely (nobody going over that 50% mark of network hashing power).

Actually....deepbit is like at 49% right now...idk how this happened again. o.o

BTC Guild is back online and running strong so far.  New server is MUCH faster than the old one based on reports from all our users in the IRC channel.  We're now more connected to other bitcoin nodes meaning our blocks will spread across the network faster, and new blocks will be notified faster via long poll updates.

Registrations are back up, and we encourage our users that switched to other pools to come back now that we aren't running on an overloaded server.
