Hi all...<br /><br />

The restore is in progress, please wait a bit.<br />> <br />> We get many questions from tool-user "The tool xyz does not work" or "Why is <br />> the toolserver defect/crashed/explode?".<br />> <br />> To inform our tool-user better in future, I created some files:<br />> <br />> http://tools.wikimedia.de/status_s1 (same for s2 and s3).<br />> <br />> I think that ERRO and DOWN should be compulsive for tools, INFO and WARN is <br />> optionally.<br />>
<br />> I plan to update the rules for this at October 1, so please use the time to <br />> update your tools. Suggestion are of corse very welcome :).<br />> <br />> Sincerly,<br />> DaB.<br /><br />A small typo in these files... several times it says "planed" such as<br /><br />"#A Information (like a planed maintaince in far future)."<br /><br />The correct english word here is "planned"... there is also some a/an confusion and some other minor typos....<br /><br />In fact here is the entire http://tools.wikimedia.de/status_s1 file, but with my suggested corrections incorporated into it...<br /><pre># This file shows the status of S1<br />#<br /># The format is <br /># STATUS;Text<br />#<br /># Lines with # at the beginning are comments.<br />#<br /># The following STATUSes are possible:<br />#<br /># OK: <br /># All Ok, nothing to show.<br />#<br /># INFO: <br /># An Informational message (like a planned maintenance activity in the
far future).<br /># Please show the line in your tools as information to give users notice.<br />#<br /># WARN:<br /># A Warning (like a planned maintenance activity in the near future).<br /># Please show the line in your tools as information to give users notice.<br />#<br /># ERRO:<br /># An Error (like a unplanned maintenance activity or some other issue)<br /># Please show the text instead of your tools<br /># (or be very sure that your tools do work).<br />#<br /># DOWN:<br /># Like ERRO, but planned.<br />#<br />OK;<br />#EOF<br />#<br /><br />Hope that is of some help. I think being able to show canned status from the system is a nifty idea, thanks for making it happen.<br /></pre><river@wikimedia.org><sean@silentflame.com><c13e6b500708290956g3e641a01hacd0897fc8696b82@mail.gmail.com><en.wp.st47@gmail.com><sean@silentflame.com><wp@daniel.baur4.info><toolserver-l@lists.wikimedia.org><br
