Is SoftLayer down?
| Posted by Erwin, 01-29-2010, 06:12 PM |
My site is inaccessible all of a sudden.
And I can't get to http://www.softlayer.com
Is it just me? |

Is anyone having trouble getting onto www.softlayer.com or are your sites/servers not loading up? Or is this just an issue I'm having. I can't access any of my sites or my server nor can I access softlayer.com or any of its subs. Very irritating.  |

Seems to be, one of our servers(our forums/offsite comm) just went down, it had a hiccup earlier.
manage.softlayer is also down. |

How can a whole hosting company datacentre be down?
Must be something catastrophic, as this was unscheduled obviously. |

Obviously a bad situation. Not necessarily catastrophic though. It's happened before. I believe last time it was a UPS failure, but don't remember for sure. |

Site is up and working for me. |

It's intermittent. Packet loss started around 3PM EST. Slowly coming back now. |

| Posted by Erwin, 01-29-2010, 06:22 PM |

Yup, up. Thanks all. |

I've got 4 servers at SoftLayer (in Dallas) and none of them experienced an issue that I can tell. Perhaps isolated to one area? |
| Posted by (Stephen), 01-29-2010, 06:29 PM |
|
We are in Server Room 2 if it makes any difference... maybe others also? |

Not sure which room mine were in, but mine were in the Dallas datacenter. Back up now though so that's good. |

Up and running for me...
They have maintenance windows but may affect customers:
Quote:
Maintenance ID: 4700
Date: 01/30/2010
Start time (UTC): 08:00:00
End time (UTC): 11:00:00
Services affected: 10G Verio #2 link in Dallas
Location: DAL01
Duration: up to 3 hours
==================================================
Verio/NTT will be performing physical maintenance on one of the two routers to
which Softlayer connects to them.
Customer Impact: There is no expected impact. The maintenance is on a part
of the router affecting other Verio/NTT customers than Softlayer. This is just
an advisory as Verio/NTT will be working on this router. In the event there is an
impact on the Verio #2 link, traffic on this link or destined for the it when it is
taken off line may see latency or sub-optimal routing as traffic is routed
through our other, redundant links, including the Verio #1 link, which connects
to a different Verio/NTT router.
==================================================
If you have any problems after this time frame with regard to connectivity, or if you
have any questions regarding the maintenance at any point, please open a ticket in
the customer portal.
We appreciate your patience during this work and welcome any feedback.
Thank you,
Network Engineering
