Quite weird... Was thinking that it is just to cover something up to prevent panic. And well, they still have not sorted it out for almost 2 weeks...

Ya... they did an update of software and everything is F'd up now... :rofl:

I cant really believe what is happening. If they just did an upgrade even if its the software or hardware ,and something happen ,They should have a redundant or back up that should work normal like the primary . They said that they've been working with Oracle and Microsoft. I hope this companies are expediting support .

Well I still believe that they are doing their best to get everything up and running.

crossing my fingers :)

ahhahahha.. that would be possible. The crash might have been causing for the device to replace or needs re-installing or restoring .. that's when it takes few days to weeks.

Im praying that all tech supports from respective companies are doing their best efforts!! :)

Normally, in a big data center, you have a "test system" that's not used for main processing. You update this system first, and test the ####### out of it. If it works there, you roll it to the main system. This sounds like they installed it on the MAIN system, and the redundant backup system AT THE SAME TIME. A CARDINAL no-no.

Also, just so you know, if you read in the news about the trouble with the "Obamacare" national website rollout that was handled by CGI Federal, this is ALSO their handywork.

When I first heard about this "glitch" it did smell an awful lot like the 'ObamaCare' debacle. And thank you for making sense of the wonky stuff!
