Not sure  if the general discussion HamWAN list (psdr) cares about outage  
notifications.  Probably not.  Here's one example, forwarded  below.

We also had an outage of Baldi a couple days ago during very  heavy rain + 
wind.  It was intermittent.  I brought up a secondary  link to Baldi in 
response to this, and have left it on to be used by the  routers as a backup 
route when the primary uplink fails.  We REALLLLY  need to align that Baldi 
dish so this link doesn't fail.  We're presently  working off a side lobe, and 
the main lobe of the Baldi uplink is aimed @  Cougar Mtn instead.  As cool 
as that is, it's throwing away  signal.

We've had some other edge/uplink router outages in the past,  and have 
deployed self-healing scripts now to avoid any future occurrences of  these.

Overall, I'd say we're improving stability, not just chasing our  tail.  
There's still a very problematic Paine-CapitolPark link.   Could be mitigated 
with dish alignment.

Looks like we had a short outage for Cacti (and by extension, the  map on 
the homepage). MySQL stopped itself due to low RAM. I've bumped the RAM  
allocation from 512MB to 1GB and restarted things. All is happy.  


Also, syslogging continued without issue. FYI.
