[00:28] au: ARIN policy states I can put "Private Customer" for name and "Private Residence" for the address, but the city,state,postal code, and country must be disclosed [00:29] ok cool [00:29] hmmmm I wonder if NZ DNC have a similar rule for domains [00:32] *** milki has joined #arpnetworks [00:36] looks like no [00:41] * mattx86 signs up for a second vps [00:47] *** milki has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [00:54] *** milki has joined #arpnetworks [00:57] done :) [01:09] mattx86: do you have larger than a /30 IP block? [01:09] up_the_irons: nah, I picked the free /30 [01:11] mattx86: then i'll have to expand your existing /30 to a /29 ($5 per month). we don't give out multiple /30's [01:11] oh ok [01:12] hm.. let me think about it for moment [01:14] ok, yeah, that's fine [01:14] ok [01:15] will my current IP on the existing vps change? [01:15] not that it matters [01:17] *** LT has joined #arpnetworks [01:17] if ARIN needs my info, I'd prefer to be listed as private [01:29] *** cubelogic has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [01:33] up_the_irons: It would be cool for our accounts to have a "SWIP privacy" checkbox which sets the SWIP info to the "Private Customer/Private Residence" values without having to muck about with temporary account info changes. [01:34] mattx86: what's your current IP? i'll see if there is space above it (usually there is, since we use rfc 3531 allocation method) [01:35] pilgrimd: send that to support@arpnetworks.com and i'll put it in the suggestion box [01:36] up_the_irons: pm'ed [01:37] mattx86: yes, there is space [01:37] ah, cool [01:37] mattx86: you'll want to change your subnet mask from 255.255.255.252 to 255.255.255.248 on your existing vps once i send you the 2nd one [01:37] up_the_irons: ok [01:38] up_the_irons: thanks again garry [01:39] mattx86: np!

[06:30] host in questions is river.styx.org [06:30] I'm getting some failed pings too [06:30] do you know which kvm you're on? [06:31] RandalSchwartz: no clue [06:31] ww: what is your vnc host? [06:31] ww: that'll be your kvm host [06:31] oh yeah, my nagios is going nuts [06:32] starting about 10 minutes ago [06:32] kvr13 [06:32] 21 packets transmitted, 21 packets received, 0.0% packet loss [06:33] for both v4 and v6 on my vps, on kvr14 [06:33] so something is odd [06:33] came back up pretty much immediately... but [06:33] 15:33 up 8 mins, 0 users, load averages: 0,00 0,11 0,08 [06:33] I need to chat with Garry about how he's monitoring these things [06:33] he uses nagios... ;-) [06:34] no - I mean to what depth [06:34] because I definitely have hiccups across all my boxes at once, weirdly [06:35] like the box can't even ping itself [06:35] nagios is .. finicky .. wrt helper timing [06:35] nagios -> exec -> helper .. if helper doesn't do its thing within a short period of time, it presumes failure [06:36] yeah, but I get correlating ad hoc tests that [06:36] I've had real hardware scenarios (swapping, busy server, etc) cause false positives to the point that I gave up using nagios altogether. [06:37] not sayin there isn't something to this, but a host not being able to ping itself islikely more that the disk io and/or cpu didn't churn the helper app fast enough to satisfy nagios rather than the box actually not being able to ping itself [06:37] well - let's just pretend I didn't say nagios [06:37] things seem to break [06:37] but spooky. like unable to ping self [06:37] you can login and run ping manually I bet it works every time [06:37] I suspect the virtual network interface is marginal [06:37] maybe under stress or something [06:37] I'm just sayin nagios needs a 'helper timed out' notification rather than 'ALERT WE HAD FAILURE TO PING' notification [06:39] the box pinging an IP on its ethernet nic would be the local os processing the packets, nothing to do with kvm pretending to be ethernet hardware [06:40] therefore a failure to ping the local IP can only be a timeout failure due to io or cpu being 'otherwise busy' .. or a firewall on the local box failure, I trust the 2nd not to be the case [06:40] as I said, other indicators too. [06:40] please stop fixating. :) [06:40] a kvm host chewing cpu or disk whether via another vps or native app is most likely the reason for your nagios alerts. just my $.02 anyway. [06:41] yeah, I fixated. moving on .. ;-) [06:42] I used to have really weird ICMP problems on a Verio VPS, but I suspect that was more due to the way they do virtualized FreeBSD with their own jail implementation [08:21] *** Tadaka has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [08:21] *** bharatak has joined #arpnetworks [08:22] *** bharatak has quit IRC (Client Quit) [08:23] *** bharatak has joined #arpnetworks [08:34] *** bharatak has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [08:36] *** fink has joined #arpnetworks [08:47] *** bharatak has joined #arpnetworks [08:52] *** bharatak has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [08:58] *** bGeorge has quit IRC (Quit: Bye.)
