Description bgwhite 2014-08-21 05:07:31 UTC
I'm getting this error for the past ~30 minutes:

Could not connect to database: Host '10.68.17.174' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'
Comment 1 metatron 2014-08-21 12:55:20 UTC
It is node: tools-webgrid-04  which is currently blocked by tools-db. All other nodes seem to be ok atm. A db-admin has to issue the FLUSH HOSTS command:

But prior to that, maybe assess the culprit-app.
As an /emergency/ workaround, you could repeatedly restart your webservice until it's no longer on tools-webgrid-04.

Comment 2 bgwhite 2014-08-23 06:56:44 UTC
For the past few weeks, web services have continually died.  Big Brother does restart it.  However, on which webgrid node things restart on can be random.  Long story short, a good part of the day I'm on tools-webgrid-04, thus dead in the water.

flush hosts done.
