Hi,

Our locator service (from version 3.0.0, apps now using 3.1.0) failed last night. The service had been up for several months prior to that, but with a pretty light load.

Just wondering if you guys have any data on MTBF for the locator under heavier loads than we have subjected it to here (our load will increase a lot very soon)?

Thanks.

    No, we don't have any such data, nor do I believe that it can be measured. If we run a long-term test of IceGrid (or any other Ice component), and it fails, we consider such failure a bug, and eliminate this bug. Thus, if we run the same long-term test again, it will not fail anymore due to this bug, rendering the previously measured time interval to this failure meaningless.

    Of course, there might be operating system failures, hardware failures, etc. However, none of these failures have anything to do with Ice in particular, but depend on your computing environment.

    Hi Mark,

    Do you have any information on the failure such as a core file with a stack trace? Are you using replica groups? There's a known bug with replica groups which could result in a crash of the registry, see [thread=2745]here[/thread] .

    Cheers,
    Benoit.
