Hard disk upgrade

2007-10-04 00:31:29 | johann | #

The storage for screenshots on the ShotServer has been upgraded from 100 to 300 GB today, thanks to our hosting sponsor Quickhost.com. Because of the growing popularity of Browsershots, screenshots had to be deleted 5 days after they were last viewed, but now we'll be able to keep them longer again. How long exactly remains to be seen, as this depends on the number of screenshot uploads per hour, and on the number of visits to old screenshots.

The unscheduled downtime last weekend and today was due to this hard disk upgrade and some networking problems on the virtual machines. Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope Browsershots will run smoothly for the next months.
