<auto-dbm@ripe.net> is slow this afternoon.

Dear Colleagues, Because of a very high level of use this afternoon, the response time of <auto-dbm(a)ripe.net> is longer than normal. I have made contact with those who are responsible and I expect the situation to improve as the machine works through the queue. Please be patient. Obviously we at the RIPE NCC Database Group are continuously working to make the performance of the database as good as possible. However, we cannot make improvements in zero time. We thank you for your co-operation up to now and we ask for your continued co-operation so that everyone receives the best possible service. If you have anymore questions, please contact <ripe-dbm(a)ripe.net>. Regards, Ambrose Magee ____________________________ RIPE Database Administration.

Clean-up of backlog of unreferenced personal data completed
by Denis Walker 08 Mar '10

08 Mar '10

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC has now completed the clean-up of the backlog of unreferenced PERSON and ROLE objects in the RIPE Database. The results of this process can be seen on the RIPE Database inconsistency graph for Unreferenced Person/Role Objects: http://www.ripe.net/projects/dbconstat/cons-unrefpero.html Since this process began, almost half a million objects have been deleted. Our Customer Services Department received only a handful of tickets related to these object deletions. The clean-up script will continue to run and keep the RIPE Database clear of unreferenced PERSON and ROLE objects. For details of this process, see: http://www.ripe.net/db/support/unreferenced-personal-data-clean-up.html Users of the RIPE Database should only create these objects containing personal data when there is a need for them. They should not be created until there is an imminent need to reference them. Regards, Denis Walker Business Analyst RIPE NCC Database Group
