I don't want to be the conspiracy theorist here but what if the whole operation was a data hoarding scheme and now all data from these hard drives will be sold on the underwebs?
Most of it might even be irrelevant to most people and hence they would not benefit at all from it. What I’m afraid of is that it is a scam
Especially their recent push in may to get rid of their clearance servers what if they just took the annual charges from everyone and have decided to shut shop
Ive seen this alot and its a method used to either cover up or divert away from dodgy or bankrupt actions in the past
Received an email this morning ~2 hours ago from delimiter responding to our initial ticket asking why servers were down that was opened over a week ago:
We have received your request and it will be attended to shortly.
Also, ended up deciding not to send my tech to the building as it's a long drive for him and would likely not get anywhere without access cards/appointments
did you have any luck with this?
I just posted about the idea about an hour ago. I'll call them tomorrow (Wednesday morning)
I have an inkling that someone from Delimiter/Yomura stull reads this group. Even if they said they’re leaving LET, they’re prolly still interested to see how people are reacting to this downtime.
Looks like there were some BGP announcements last night and many of the routes are going through the GTT network interface in Atlanta again. Still no responses on destination IP's within their data center, but it looks like traffic is being routed back to the right place.
Hopefully this is good news and indicates that things will come back online soon. I was responsible and took hourly incremental backups to an offsite location, but my desktop died a few weeks ago and with it went my only off-server copy of the password I need to decrypt my backups.
How much you saved by using Delimiter services after all?
It's been such a pain in the ass. I'm not afraid of spending money, I just like being frugal... but I've learned that Delimiter isn't frugal, it's cheap. The difference between frugal and cheap is that cheap breaks often and is unreliable.
I used to have such a good backup system but something crashed and it was just backing up blank files dint realise till I absolutely needed it last wek. To be honest I may not run away from delimiter if they come back online but it would be for backup server rather than the primary server as it was now.
I had one very good client service from them once in the past my hard drive burned down and they not only tried to restore and recover data but upgraded me to a much higher server at the same cost. which is why I have sort of out so much faith in them and except this instance they have actually fixed downtime’s in about a day. So hope is not yet lost.
link pls
traceroute pls. for me it looks like telia still, via nash
&
RIPE statistics starting at 4am
Another example
It used to end in Nashville for me, now it hops to ip4.gtt.net (which ends in Digital Realty's data center at 56 Marietta (next door to 55 Marietta where Yomura is/was hosted)
Good move. I live in atlanta and have been to 55 marietta a few times. There is a guard desk when you walk in and you need to have a card to scan or the guard call somebody to come get you. So if anybody went over there the likely thing would be the guard calls delimiter they say no and the guard asks you to leave.
My traceroutes to my server are very different today. I was getting timeout and now I'm getting TTL expired in transit. I am still going from atlanta to nashville then to gtt like the ones above but then it bounces around in gtt a bit and back to nash and back to gtt. In a way though this actually looks better since it looks like it acctually trying to get the IP this time instead of just dying in nash.

Looking at the traceoutes the interesting thing to me is that before it ended wit the nash telia router. Now we have a hop to a yomura telia router in nash which wasn't there before. This is back to making me think this was a routing/switching/peering issue and maybe if they now have access again to the tomura telia router they just need to make a routing change in ATL this morning and everyting comes up. Wishful thinking I know..lol
I've been using them for 2 years now. The service has been horrible but I've put up with it until now. The outage is now 9 days running. I've asked for a copy of the SLA but my ticket remains unanswered. I tried to find it myself but noticed the Terms and Conditions link goes to a 403. Has it always been that way or did they just do that? Does anyone know. If it used to be there and it was just recently taken down, that's a bad sign.
Question: Their latest post that says most of the servers were restored over the past weekend... Has anyone here had their system come back online?
not mine
I have not seen one person post here, on WHT or twitter that their server is up.
Any luck on this?
HOLY CRAP!!! Mine is up
Literally JUST NOW
Congrats.
And now it's down again!
LOL! Of course. They probably upgraded the firmware on the new blades...
And now it's back up.
at least it sounds like progress is being made.
Uptime on server says 9 hours
a.k.a BACK YOUR SHIT UP AND RUN!!
