Gwyneira Evergreen Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Considering they got out of scheduled maint, I'd say it's time to break out the ye ol' sea shanty: 🎵🎵 99 little bugs in the code, 99 little bugs in the code. Take one down, patch it around 117 little bugs in the code. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardy Lay Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (Sorry, nothing better to do during my lunch break.) The correct usage of "unscheduled maintenance" is when preventative action is taken based upon operational observations indicating something will wear excessively or break if you let it continue running as-is, or that database is full of records marked for deletion but they system is too busy to perform an expunge. Or maybe a network node or link was over-loaded or experiencing communications errors. Off-schedule maintenance would be doing things like engine oil changes early or more frequently than dictated by the schedule, maybe you have nothing more pressing to do. So, I am thinking something was "running hot" or slow or making noises, etc. Now, if it already broke, as in is no longer functioning as intended from the perspective of the casual user, then this is a repair, Corrective action taken to restore proper function after a device or system fails to function. I have an unmaintained preventative maintenance schedule! bla bla bla Oh, we cannot log in. Is this the result of "maintenance" or is it a symptom of "broken"?

And it's a good thing because sometimes it's a glitch that was there all along but due to other types of maintenance it popped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardy Lay Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) I suppose that, in order to not violate the Principle of least astonishment, undocumented possibilities should only be accessible to those that continue then a dialog asks them if they are sure they want to take that route.
