Popular Post tbush Posted December 24, 2010 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 [JEM] Being in the industry. Bandwidth....., when a site is taken down, big things are about to happen. Won't go into the details, but it is happening soon. [solidgold] JEM My son is techie - haven't talked to him yet this morning, but things he has explained to me in the past back up what you say. [Goin2Flathead] Let me weigh in on this. I have been in computers since the 70's and have a good amount of education and experience in the industry. If a site gets overwhelmed, it just purchases more bandwidth. It's an easy fix. By my calculations, they have been down at least 8 hours. My educated guess is that they have narrowed the bandwidth to display the error message because they are doing something in the background. I could be wrong...but I don't think so. IMO [JEM] I am tech supervisor for the largest cable company in the country, believe me it is going down. I see this all the time when we implement something new. [athena] follow the news and you can figure out what is happening [solidgold] Goin2Flathead JEM athena - This is just TOO Awesome TOO Exciting - I believe it is happening folks - Hang On rollercoaster [Mrs_Blaino ] We have all rushed to the Cbi in the past to check things when we were on high alert. We never crashed the site then. Seems like maybe this outage is their doing. [Goin2Flathead] ajob This is the Iraq's national bank website. They are not going to be overwhelmed. [athena] ajob doubt it [athena] solidgold it is for sure [JEM] bandwidth is just a matter of opening up the pipes, of course with a cost. [JEM] I'm sure CBI has their own dedicated servers. [JEM] They are probably testing it now. Working the bugs out. It really depends on them. [athena] so we have the hcl done, the cbi and cbk, no auctions, cbi says we need to raise value of currency, Maliki says we need to raise value, Delta says tv reporting now, 3rd reading of budget on saturdaay or sunday, forex bank screen now showing a code, Parliment working on a Day off, Dead line tomorrow, great news articles out! Sunday is our day! [athena] For anyone who is intrested the Central bank of Kuwait did not have a auction yesterday also [athena] Cbi is down for a reason and we all know what it is 19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAL Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 I also am from the industry - and I agree 100% with tbush above. The idea of a Central Bank website running out of bandwidth is just absurd. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quadraph0nic Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Okay i was going to be quiet but I can't help myself and I apologize in advance for my ramble... I dont think I'm going out on a limb here but the site is most likely setup on a dedicated server running cpanel if u just browse to the sites IP address u see whm cpanel...blah blah.. I remember you can go into cpanel and set the bw threshold for a site (or you can edit the apache config conf or one of those files to get the same result) This is an apache error its on the server. Its generated from the server. I'm pretty sure there are BW overage charges that are in place from the actual host provider like if this is a leased (dedicated) server and even if there was a serious issue with BW overage, they would contact the customer first before pulling the plug especially a government site. The site is all text minimal graphics and maybe a few files....its not like crazy streaming multimedia and we have never seen this kind of outage before for this long. If its a leased server, depending on the operations of the company leasing the server and whether or not they are also managing the server...if they are not managing the server then they would not have root pass. the cust would have to provide that info and it would only be in a tech support situation so in an event where the customer over extended themselves on service, they would just pull the plug on the box if that was an issue but thats kind of rude to do that without contacting the cust...anyway... My point to this is that I believe it was downed on purpose. I dont believe that stupid apache error page. I had told my friend and bro watch the currency auction page and when sunday comes if it still said 22-DEC then something is up....oh well so much for that. Maybe in play now and could possibly be down till till sunday or monday...but then I am loco with dinar fever so...seriously I am so obsessed... Now if my assumptions are wrong then this is some pretty F'd up circumstances especially at this time where we are at in the investment. I mean that to me would be crazy....to choose this as a time to overhaul your site just for the heck of it or maybe it was really the provider being stupid and they logged in and did this...I don't see it...Every hour I see cbi.iq is down I can not stand it... something has to be up. That bothers me...100% uptime for a site of this importance is pretty important. Then again, maybe I want it too bad ya know? but honestly based on my work experience supporting this kind of stuff years and years ago no I don't believe that stupid error page... Its just my 2 cents...this investment is making me mucho much loco...man I just want this to be over soon...take what i say for what its worth maybe someone out there can set me straight... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Also note worthy that, not only is the CBI site down, but the Bagdad bank web site for some reason has disabled their currency conversion feature. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSSMD Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Just wanted to see if the site could be down because GOI just issued plastic cards to their nationals and that may have caused the bandwidth to go over???
