I see that Akamai's peak is sitting around 1 Gbps, while it was regularly peaking to 1.7 Gbps before the 25th. Is this part of Akamai's cap change?

Am updating graphs and such now... I copied Hurricane's old port RRD into its new port so we'd retain their history for the aggregate graph. Looks like the Akamai cluster is going again, thanks to everyone for their work on that.

Re: MICE Akamai Issues

by Justin Krejci

Apologies for the confusion. Been quite busy the last few days and it was not immediately clear to my subconscious that the list was not already familiar with the issue. As already explained well by Dave, nobody probably would have even noticed it if the capacity was just reduced as opposed to completely disabled.

It shouldn't be anymore as I had the cap "fixed" and adjusted to the expected amount. If it's still an issue, I haven't heard it so let me know.

With respect to settled numbers, we're settled. Our system reacts to changes typically within 48 hours. We usually see more use when things get more local for a variety of reasons.

Over the summer we were averaging 800Mb to 1Gb of combine cache fill and TCP ACK traffic, and serving a total of 2 to 2.5G of content out of our node to both MICE and GigaPOP participants. At peak the two nodes seem to be serving 2.5 to 3G, but I'm not really confident of those number because we really haven't got everything settled in yet, I'd like to see a week or two of sustained numbers before I believe we've settled in. -- =============================================== David Farmer Email:farmer@umn.edu Networking & Telecommunication Services Office of Information Technology University of Minnesota 2218 University Ave SE Phone: 612-626-0815 Minneapolis, MN 55414-3029 Cell: 612-812-9952 =============================================== ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MICE-DISCUSS list, click the following link: http://lists.iphouse.net/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=MICE-DISCUSS&A=1

I have 2 reasons right now for outage: USI has a proposal into Akamai regarding <something> Akamai inadvertently shut it off after a cap was put into place but neither is really giving me an answer. Is the problem that USI donated bandwdith and some cap was exceeded for feeding the Akamai cluster? If that's the case, what is the cap? Can the load be shared amongst some/all providers for the benefit of the exchange point? Is the problem that Akamai exceeded an internal cap for feeding into MICE's network and it needed to be adjusted? If that's the case, what was the cap? What is it now?

It's not offline. Our NOC inadvertently shut it off after I had asked them to simply place a cap on the amount of capacity it would push. That was fixed this morning. I would've seen it sooner myself, but I'm in Senegal at the moment.
