Both down. KVM and OpenVZ.
BuyVM (buyvm.*******) is UP again at 15-02-2013 03:37:58AM, after 57m of downtime.
Your clock is horribly miscalibrated. It was actually 23.5 minutes of downtime.
Plus spin up times, plus quotas to re-calculate on OVZ
Spin up times and disk sanity stuff is a murderer of downtime.
Good thread. Made me realize to check NTP syncing on everything and put more assets under monitoring.
Fran has to be having an adult sized fit over this. Shame.
I am not clocking anything. Just pasted from pingdom which checks my vps every minute.
Not all nodes were up same time, fact is 2 show still as down, so, unless you know you were both on same node you do not know how much downtime some other guy had.
Even if on same node, not all containers start the same moment, there might be minutes of delay.
@Soylent said: Your clock is horribly miscalibrated. It was actually 23.5 minutes of downtime.
Clock miscalibration shouldn't matter too much if time it went down and time it came back up was logged by the same clock. You're just looking at the difference between the 2 times.
My node is reported as up, can't get my OVZ to boot though...
The internet sarcasm detector is broken today. I'm taking the piss out of @pubcrawler. My informal count of downtime was 54 minutes. I'm using an extremely sophisticated measuring technique that goes like this:
Be using the server when it goes down.
Note when it actually stopped working by my client timestamp.
Be reconnecting obsessively because I need to get shit done.
Note when it actually starts responding again, by my client timestamp.
So, not accounting for any quantum drift or subwarp radiation fields or anything, my very own clock reported 54 minutes of downtime. Downtime in this context meaning, "I could not use the damned server."
Still down over an hour here
OK, now the detector identified that as definitely positive.
Only seeing this offline now: ovz-lv-27 1h 16m
It's all good @Soylent. Fair enough
Say it as it is @Maounique. :P "I hate aldryic", hate is a strong meaning so I wouldn't hate someone just dislike their attitude.
YAY :-)
Down over 2 hours now
Like I said, buyvm should pruchase excusevm.com now.
I wonder what their excuse will be....waiting...

Why do you find it so difficult to accept that the issues may just be down to the DC?
Nope, is up
@Nekki
For LAKid, many things are hard to accept.

@Nick
@Roph, any idea of what server you are on? Looks like everything is back up...
That "OH SHIT" moment when the power goes out and it gets quiet in the DC haha
Meanwhile at WHT:
@Roph That's a lot of downtime
I'd certainly be replacing the electrician if not the company he/she works for at this point.
This stuff happens, but might be prudent to make it happen after hours and do so in a work window that is scheduled.
@amitz @pubcrawler Not to kick too hard when down...

but the question becomes when will it end. After another 3 outages? 10? The unfortunate thing is moving somewhere else may be inevitable, all of FH good intentions aside.
@unused
I am not trying to be BuyVM's advocate at all. Of course this sucks big time for any customer doing serious stuff with their VMs! I am just lucky because my BuyVM VPS is only for backups and testing.
This sucks for BuyVM and FiberHub. I can't imagine any other LEB providers will be jumping to colo with FH in the near future. Network drops because of misconfigurations or attacks are one thing, but power loss is a whole 'nother beast.
