Is the LR2000 down?

[minerrick]

I've been trying to login for the last couple of days and I get to the homepage, but when I try to go to "run reports" I get the white "cannot find server" page. Anyone else having this problem?

Let us know where when you find out.

Well, there goes the neighborhood... It will be interesting to see if he can drag Big Red down to Oregon when we cant even float a dredge

LR2000 has been down since Friday. We didn't get any notice from the BLM but they are pretty lax about sending out the user emails when they should. It looks like the main server is still operating in Denver so we will be putting out claims updates as soon as they are posted on that server.

The 316 Mining claim was closed last year. Todd might be having lunch with the producers?

You can search the same info as LR2000 on the Land Matters Claims maps. The data found there is current as of the first of February.

LR2000 still down, doesn't seem like a server would be down so long.
so I thought maybe its the internet? found this outage map, looks more like war games...

(edit) looking better, when I first posted it was major...

We are in regular touch with the BLM offices. Here's their response to our question about the LR2000 status a few hours ago.

The public LR2000 reports are currently down. The developers are working on the issue.
I will let you know when the system is back up.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

The main BLM data servers are still up and running. They just now finished the bi monthly extraction so we will be updating the Land Matters Claims Maps soon - possibly before the LR2000 is back up.

We keep a full backup of the LR2000 data locally. If the LR2000 ever went away for good Land Matters could potentially perform the same function.

Seriously, the BLM own their own data lines. They are not renting a cable modem from Comcast.

I have a feeling that the long weekend didn't help matters either. You know how the government hates to pay overtime!

 

[winners58]

ya' your right I'm sure they have their own backbone and IPX access point, just having a blond moment
since its the government we'll probably never the real reason it's down.

 

[Clay Diggins]

That's OK Winners, blonde looks good on you.

I think we already have some usable information on why that particular server is down. In the email reply I got today:

The public LR2000 reports are currently down. The developers are working on the issue.
I will let you know when the system is back up.

We know:
1 The reports are down. In other words the outage is limited to the LR2000 reporting function itself - not hardware related.
2. The developers are working on the issue. Developers work on new software - not old software or hardware. "Issue" indicates the new software is not working as expected.
3. I will let you know when the system is back up. It is the system that is not functioning and it's local enough that the sender of that email (Land and Resources Project Office) will know when that software system functions as it should.

Translation - New software is being installed in one part of the server and when that new software "issue" is resolved the server software will be available to the public again.

That certainly isn't the whole story but it's enough to know what kind of problem the LR2000 is having. These server and database software upgrades are usually scheduled for long weekends when the government offices aren't using the systems. If you really want to know what the specific software upgrade is you will probably need to find the contract award for the outside software developer or make a friend on the "inside". Server operators don't share specific information about the internal workings of their systems for security reasons.

Hopefully it comes back up today....I was wanting to check on a spot for this weekend!

 

[Au-N-Rod]

Check it out on Land Matters. It has info as current as LR2000 as far as being active .

 

[49er4ever44]

I used landmatters and geocommunicator but was hoping lr2000 would be more up to date. I'm still new to locating claims though. What information do you need to have (call in?) to check exact location/status of claims?

 

[Clay Diggins]

The LR2000 is still down as it has been for the last six days. The main Denver BLM data servers are still operating and they did update with the latest extraction. They were a bit late putting that together so we've been working to get that information to you as soon as possible.

The new BLM active claims map update is being loaded up to the Land Matters servers as I write this.

Now we are in the curious situation where Land Matters has more current BLM claims information than the LR2000 or any other source on the internet.

its back up, found one glitch when doing a geo report it has the current claim name,
click it brings up an older claim with a different name filed by the same person over the same spot.
maybe they used the same claim Number and I ran it for open & closed claims?
its also telling me it needs a Hyperion plugin but that would have to come from Oracle for the browser.

(edit) I was clicking on the "lead file" column, instead of the "serial num."
