Does S89 Backup Every Saturday Morning?

[bernard_fruga]

Hi,

I host my phpBB forum on the server 89. Most of the users connects from Switzerland, and they complain the access is slow on most Saturdays mornings.

Well, the Swiss morning would mean 2am - 4 am of the local time where the server is located.

 

Is that just a coincidence or maybe they are right the trouble is caused by a weekly server backup run by TCH?

 

Cheers,

Bernard

Hi Bernard,

 

Yes, backups on that server are taken at that time. It's a balance between causing load, and having backups.

 

The good news however is that we are moving to a new backup system which does not cause load problems - see New Backup Policy and will also include more frequent backups.
