I really need to, if only to show how often my automatic monitor and restart script detects and corrects Blackboard webserver failures.A bit of log parsing, a bit of statistical wizardry, and I should get some pretty pictures of Blackboard periodically crapping itself. I might find some interesting correlations – who knows? It’s a long shot, but there’s probably a finite, non-zero probability that something other than greedy corporate ineptitude is to blame for Blackboard’s awful reliability. I won’t rule it out but I’m not holding my breath either…
