Default GameServers.net redirect server down

14-02-2006, Schiphol-Rijk the Netherlands, GameServers.net is currently working on the largest free redirect server in Europe. This results in a downtime of several days.

GameServers.net is currently upgrading the total available storage on the redirect server from 160Gb to 300Gb. The move of data is taking it's time as it is being copied between 2 machines trough a 100Mbit netwerk card. Also the configuration of the server is taking more time then originally planned.

We are configuring the server in a RAID configuration. This will result in safety for your UZ redirect files as the data is preserved after disk errors / fails.

The E.T.A. on the redirect server is by the end of this week.

As soon as the redirect server is online again we will bring out a new pressrelease.

Hi,

I was wondering why the redirect was down. Are you going to keep the redirect files you were on the redirect before ? I'm asking this because I've started a project ( http://utcacheproject.clansmiley.com/ ) and some of the compressed files on the UT redirect are hard, if not impossible, to find elsewhere.

I believe they removed all files who were uploaded before 2005 to safe space on their redirect.

That's normal afaik.
A few times per hour (or maybe directly now) the files from the upload directory are added to the actual redirect. So you won't see them in the ftp folder anymore

Just looked, you can see the index of the UT2004 directory:

http://uz2.gameservers.net/ut2004/

RSC will be back on the job now too. Woot!

uz.gameservers.net still works. The listing of files has just been disabled. That means a server can still directly call a file that is in the directory.

Correct, the directory excists, but access is blocked probably via htaccess. But there isn't any index file yet so even if you had access you wouldn't see anything, so a 404.
