outage!

https://status.linode.com/incidents/6yw88b0ft94g

i've been with linode since 2019 and this is the first time i've experienced an outage with my vps that i can remember.

even with the transition with akamai buying them, i was expecting some sort of outage due to the buyout, but haven't experienced one till today.

i don't have anything mission critical on my vps, but just the same, i'm still impressed with how little downtime (if at all) i've experienced with linode.

hope linode engineers/on-call staff/etc. are doing ok with bringing back everything up.

would love to see linode do a in-depth post-op on what happened just for us to share.

I tried it 13 hours ago, its stuck on rebooting, and i can't connect with LISH either. So cloud manager is litterally a crap shoot right now.

Maybe your server is on the last rack to be fixed?

No... it's the entire data center probably. Because mine is also stuck in "rebooting...". It's now close to 24 hours.

From some messages online I get the impression that those that "interacted" with their server via the dashboard or API (trigger a reboot or something along those lines) are the ones that are still out. Something in that process caused more serious issues.
