Looks like something at BHS is pretty congested.
I think the weathermap is real time though, some of the maps/images have a time stamp on them and usually within 5 minutes. You can also use the link below to check on racks in the DC if you're server down.

Here is a link to the Windows 2012 DC edition compiled with virtio driver for those who wants to give it a try:
[Removed, seems to have a problem]
Disclaimer: I haven't got a chance to test it out yet but it seems to boot up for me.
Was it too difficult to run 2 or 4 traceroutes (or better, mtr's)? You're quick to post that "RBX4 is having issues", while this might be not OVH's fault whatsoever, but e.g. failing load-balancing by some carrier further on the route.
Thanks! downloading it now (although a little slow seems the server is only 100Mbps)
The Kimsufi servers are connected at 100Mb/s, unless you're talking about whatever server is hosting this file.
I think I read somewhere that they use by default 10Gb/s links, so that would be 4 x 10Gb/s links saturated by a DDoS.
Well this is weird.

I have bought one for 13 Days and it works well.
I've got an atom this morning. Unfortunately, they had to check my payment manually. My first dedicated server, excited!
Yes you're right.. There does seem to be congestion. I think it is in real time, cause a moment ago I checked it seems to be clear for the most part but now looks to be congested again. Nice tool thought thanks for pointing it out.
@rm_
Doing some maintance on my main desktop so I've pretty much been using the tablet.. But MTR does not seem to be accurate with the kimsufi.. While it may give you a rough idea on the traffic in general i always see packet loss when using mtr with all my kimsufi, while in reality the network can actually be fine.
You can use Vultr's own control panel to load the ISO directly, that might be much faster than download and upload.
Shame, always OOS when I check.
Someone should start a paid SMS notification services for Kimsufi stock
Hint @rm_ 
Use the script on Page 10? Stocks at most stay up for half an hour normally.
I rewrote the script posted a few pages back to notify me by email
Care to share?
Use my php file on simplemonitor.org for email or sms notification
Looks like the Kimsufi control panel has had a little bit of a makeover in the last half hour. It now has more monitoring stuff like CPU and memory as well as the usual bandwidth graphs.

You need to change the email settings, though, and use a cronjob or something.
@netomx solution might be simpler.
May do later... giving Distil a whirl!
FML- they deployed my server in RBX instead of BHS
If your cron is properly configured, it will mail you on any output from the scripts run by cron. That's also the original reason the script did not output anything when there was no stock.
you can also use Distill as others have mentioned previously to get email notifications also has an andorid app to seamlessly notify.
It mails me in case there is stock only -- the notify() method is called only in that case. When there is no stock, the message will be sent to stdout only, and likely redirected to /dev/null, depending on how the cronjob is set.
Some screenshots for anyone still waiting for a server/doesn't have one.
Graphs don't appear to work.
I use NotifyMyAndroid (since I have Android) and Pushover (if you have Android OR IPhone) to get notifications, those works beautifully.
If you know how to do some Python coding you can easily change this script to make it work:

My point was that you didn't need to implement E-mailing in your script. With cron it is enough to just output whatever you want to stdout, and if the cronjob output is not redirected to /dev/null, and there's a MAILTO=email@address line in /etc/crontab (and the system generally knows how to send mail, i.e. has an MTA configured), cron itself will automatically send all output from your script to that E-mail. When you don't want any mail to be sent in such setup, then simply do not output anything to stdout. That's the proper way to keep an eye on your cronjobs, not via manually implementing the E-mail function in each of them.
Point taken. I usually don't have an MTA configured nor have this need to mail notification, so it semeed way simpler to add it to to the script itself. Nice to know the proper way to do it, should I ever need, though.
Is this you, or have they done the same for other customers?

i3 at BHS is available if anyone is interested.
