adamnp Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Request: Configurable option to display a 'last 10 recent restarts' with timestamp and userid/ip that restarted the server. Why?: We not only utilize TCA to run GSP functions, we also utilize TCA to run our NoobGalore gaming community, as do many others. Certain particular usergroups within the community have access to the restart functions of the panel. However, throughout the years we have always relied on people to verify any internal issues on a particular server and verify the need for a restart. Restarting the servers when they are populated 24/7 for no reason leads to a loss of traffic. In some instances the servers become DDoS'd, or attacked through engine exploits, and the call for a restart is needed -- We have over the years have several instances where 2 people will restart a server for 'choppiness' within 15 minutes of one another, when the real cause of the 'choppiness' is from a light DoS attack. Having a dropdown be able to become displayed so you would know that someone had just restarted it 15 minutes prior (so that particular person would be alerted they should now investigate other causes) would be incredibly useful for our Senior members, likewise for the management it would be useful to be able to see 'who' just restarted a server, without having to dig through the TCA logs on the master server. Should abusive restarts become a factor, it would be quick and easy to tell the offender. Just an idea - nothing to ridiculous, but useful none the less, and bringing out another side of TCA as it is not just GSP's that utilize the panel. This would be a cool feature on v1 also, but don't believe you are still developing anything new for that if I recall correctly Thanks! -Adam Edited January 29, 2012 by adamnp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFA Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I have added this to the list of things to do. Right now the priority is to add all the missing features from v1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
