Linode down yet again?
I can't reach anything on the fremont network, or blog.linode.com. Not sure if this is linode-specific or Hurricane Electric again. Anyone else having issues?
- dholowiski 16y agoI can get to linode.com but not blog.linode.com There were so many reasons I chose Atlanta for my linode. No outage yet there!
- Andrenid 16y agoMy fremont-based sites are all online and working fine. I can't get to their blog though.
- duck 16y agoThe blog is coming up for me... just very slow.
- david_shaw 16y agoThis has been a scheduled maintenance that's been on the Linode status page (where you should always check if there's an outage) for a week: http://status.linode.com/2010/12/scheduled-network-maintenance-in-fremont-december-12-2010.html http://status.linode.com/2010/12/scheduled-network-maintenan...
- updog 16y agoA hosting company that doesn't actively inform customers of outages? Unprofessional. Nobody is going to read a status blog every day to see if an outage might happen at some point in the future. Passive notification isn't acceptable, imo.
- david_shaw 16y agoI'm sort of mixed. On one hand, you're right: it's a little ridiculous that users who are known to be affected wouldn't be alerted in advance. On the other hand, it is great that Linode had alerts posted on the status blog in advance, and worthy of note that every host will have downtime. Having a backup solution in place should be a responsibility that lies in the hands of the customer, but you're right: without verified notification it's a little hard to plan ahead. I have to say though, having switched to Linode from a more crowded, oversold host (BurstNET), the difference is amazing.
- eschutte2 16y agoMy sites in Fremont were down for about 45 minutes total (so far). Status update history: - "We do not expect a significant interruption of service during this maintenance window." - "There will be a brief period of connectivity-loss while our network infrastructure undergoes this maintenance." - "Routing for some subnets has been affected. We working with the NOC to bring them back as soon as possible."
- Skywing 16y agoDallas DC seems to be fine.
- liuliu 16y agoIt seems just network maintenance. I can connect to my server now and based on the log, there is no restart event. (after about 1 hour interruption).
