PacificRack down again?
| Posted by Mikie4648, 03-21-2011, 04:12 AM |
All my sites and servers are down.
Im getting a bit tried of the continual fiasco. I can count more than 3 occassions this has happened in so many months. |

Up again after about 15min. |

have you contacted them? Did they give you a reason? Is this isolated to a dedicated server? |
| Posted by Mikie4648, 03-21-2011, 04:27 AM |
|
Nope, i have more than 1 server on multiple subnets. |

It might be good to contact their support department to see what is up. They should be able to tell you what the problem was. If not, PM CGotzmann, I'm sure he would be more than glad to assist you. |

I saw downtime on a couple routes... My main monitoring node is on the PR network, there was some blips to a few areas during the OP's timeframe. |

So im imagining it? I lost all my ssh sessions. I tested websites on multiple boxes all returned page not founds and my email clients reported triangles indicating that it could not connect to any server. It lasted a good 15 - 20min. |

oops, that could change things up a bit. |

This is due to one of our upstream having an unexpected router reboot. When their router rebooted it took some minutes/seconds while BGP found a different path to us. 
Chris should be able to provide more details when he has them. |

Did you get a traceroute? Please submit it to our helpdesk so we can investigate.
We didn't get any monitors going off though it could have been isolated to a few specific routes. Though we for sure did not have an all out outage. We are checking a bit deeper now. |

Yes, because we were both checking it out at the same time.  |

We have many upstreams, if one of their routers rebooted it could cause some routes to be affected (the ones going over the affected backbone) until BGP re-converged.
I'm not going to make factual statements until I have more information, we are still researching and waiting for a reply from the backbone's NOC. The one fact I do know is that the downtime was not network-wide.
Update:
I'm looking at all the uplinks to our backbones/peers and I see which one had the issue and we are waiting on a response from their NOC as to what happened, as the issue did not occur on our end. Looks like there was a short dip in bandwidth which jumped back to normality shortly there after.
This is probably best a conversation for our own community forums or support desk however. |

Cool deal, figured you would be on it. But was confused with the previous comment. |
| Posted by Mikie4648, 03-21-2011, 05:09 AM |

No problem thanks for looking into this. |
| Posted by CGotzmann, 03-21-2011, 05:32 AM |
Theres a thread started regarding this in our community forums (I dont think I can link to them per WHT rules), I will update it once we have more information from nLayer. It's probably a better place to discuss this.
If the issue begins to repeat itself throughout the night, we will drop them from BGP to alleviate the issue until we have a response/resolution. Though, I would guess that it was probably just a one-time thing as nLayer is usually very reliable. |

They are located in LA, but I think they also have a location in Dallas. |

You can check our forum thread here: http://forum.quadranet.com/showthrea...1-1-02AM-GMT-8
Right now the RFO is still being diagnosed. No further issues have occurred on the uplink but if any emergency maintenance is planned, we will let you know there. |
