Current Redundancy[edit]

  • Squid
  • Only one squid server pointed at by the primary domain www.uesp.net.
  • Main domain can be easily changed to any of the content servers but DNS propagation may take up to 24 hours.
  • Database
  • Only one database server.
  • In theory, the database mirror on content3 (if operating) can be temporarily used as a read-only copy.
  • Files
  • Only one file/image/static content server.
  • All static content is hourly synced on all content servers (or should be). In a case of a complete server failure all static content paths can be manually changed to the local copy.
  • Content
  • Two identical content servers (content1/2) and one extra (content3).
