Linode EU-West (London) is offline

Surprising to me, since in the last more-than-ten years I think this is the first time it's happened

I have a pretty busy system that's heavily monitored in that DC and can second this. I can't think of a single outage of my VMs there that wasn't either my fault or a scheduled migration.

Yes. We are opening a once in a generation kinder surprise

let's hope the data center hasn't been OVH'ed

Apparently it's a power issue

If the data centre status page is to believed there are no data-centre level incidents: http://status.equinix.com/ then again i don't know if they hooked in the fire detectors.

That and Linode state they are fixing it:

> Identified - The issue has been identified and a fix is being implemented. Aug 1, 22:28 UTC

Similar here, first time a wide spread issue simultaneously took most of my Linodes completely offline.

It's down again at the same time, this makes me curious https://status.linode.com/incidents/8qnvzrfz7hg2

Seems to be back up.

Outage was between 21:40 and 23:02 UTC by my count.

[edit]

Temperamental

6 mins down again between 23:10 and 23:17 UTC for me.
