The Rubaix datacenter is down too. So are the status pages. This is a major disruption!

Edit: now they said:

> The optical network in Europe which interconnects RBX and GRA with POPs. It is down (!!).

Meaning the entirety of RBX is down too. How can they have a single point of conection to the outside world? This seems like a bad joke, not a company running hundreds of thousands of servers...

Edit: and now nearly all of their fiber network is down too. Great.

> We have a general optical issue on all our optical network in Europe: all chassis in all POP shutdown all the links 100G simultaneous (!!). RBX SBG GRA LIM ERI are down. P19 WAW BHS are UP.

Update:

SBG: 2 routing rooms are UP powered by gen. EDRF still down. ETA: 15min RBX: the DB of the optical node in RBX is corrupted. All links are still down. We upload the backup. ETA: 30min

Thanks for the links. It's kind of bad that the "status" page itself is down...

I were wondering, if they were finally hit by DDoS that would break the camel's VAC back.

Issues started around 06:15 UTC.
