Game Server Housekeeping
« on: November 20, 2009, 11:32:32 am »
As from today ALL gameservers on our ip's .201 - .204 will restart between 06:00 - 06:30 each day.  This is to make sure the servers run cleanly and although it's not needed, recover memory due to memory leaks of certain games.

Along with this there are now some disk housekeeping tasks in place.  ALL demo files will be deleted if they are 30 days or older as from the 1st of each month (starting December).  Should anyone require demo files, then they need to download them before the end of each month.
Cheers and Good Game

note that this doesn't cover any demos specifically placed into the NE webspace, and it doesn't cover the NE match servers (tho there's gonna be some housekeeping done with those at some point as well) - it mainly applies to hosted servers

Could we just have the 30 day rule?  Else, the nearer to the month end, the less time to grab ya demo.

could of worded that bit better LC..

what it was meant to mean was that at the 1st of each month any demo files older than 30 days from that date will be deleted.
