Hi, i noticed another problem besides the hardware, the "controllers" are not really highly-available? (E.g. ctr-ams07, NL) Sometimes the probes are disconnected from a RIPE controller for some time even though there is no absolutely no network issue at the probes site. I suppose this could happen from time to time but it's too often. (Maybe it's just me, maybe everyone should check the connection history at RIPE atlas). Also if a controller is not working sometimes it seems to take forever until the probe will use a failover controller and in the meanwhile its "disconnected"... Any chance to improve the availability? Best Regards Max M. On 25.08.2016 16:37, Colin Johnston wrote:
maybe virtual vm probes might be useful to investigate and also a split file system for v3 probs with /var/log on a different file system ?

Dear colleagues,
We took another, more detailed look at probe lifetimes and the dynamics of probes connecting and disconnecting from the RIPE Atlas infrastructure to try to understand how to keep the network growing in the long term.
