Encouraging update on the status page:

"The issue is related to heating/cooling complications in the data center due to a power outage . The power outage has been fixed and we are working quickly to bring our services back online."

Is this hard downtime for anyone else? We're not sure what they mean by "emerging service issue" and they haven't replied to our support ticket yet.

I woke up to a few hundred messages from Icinga - thankfully my phone is on do-not-disturb overnight. Some of my servers in Newark are up and responding, some are not.

Happy Sunday! Cleaning up the automatically-created maintenance/alert tickets generated by this is going to be a fun time.

Yes, my servers and all associate services are down: DNS, email, websites. It's a major outage at the whole Newark datacenter, which is their main one, no less.

Yes, it has gotten worse as time progressed. Some k8s services started to fail, which is how I noticed something was wrong. Then the k8s control plane was up and down. Then k8s control plan completely done. Now I can't even connect to any of my non k8s servers over ssh.

Some signs of life from some of our servers now. Still no word from Linode.
