Looking at my records there have now been four serious power outages at Fremont over the past 9 months:

November 2010
Dec 2010
May 2011
August 2011

Obviously the power issues there are systemic and have not been properly addressed (i.e. nobody is prepared to spend the money to fix this properly).

How about some compensation for those of us who are stuck using Fremont and have to put up with this 3rd-world service??


You should add the 90 second bgp outage on 6/21

I'm looking at moving away from Linode at this point. If the engineers can't figure this out, then there's no point in staying.

My linodes didn't even reboot properly, meaning I had to get in there Sunday AM to manually sort the Linode crap out again...

I'm not sure why I'm paying Linode almost $2k per mo (and growing), only to have constant headaches from their service.

Anyways, my fault for not considering moving later... I need a host with some decent uptime / service... time to start hunting and testing new hosts :)

Glad to know there are others with a lot of nodes.

Some programs won't work will redundant, ie. Voip or its just not cost effective.

Ideally we move to Dallas, hope for better days and pray latency is good enough.

Anyone else on node 390, 391 and 411 ?

We're seeing super high latency on those - maybe a switch issue?

Typical Sony. APC will sell you a 2200VA 3.4 kWh UPS/battery for $1850, but Sony thinks that that they can charge $27,500 for a 1000VA 2.4 kWh UPS.

Sony must be using Monster Cables for all of the wiring....

I think the spec sheet states they use ionized copper for the ultrapure sine wave of power.

Thanks, that answers my questions.

They should probably split the load on several breakers in order
1. to minimize a PO scope
2. to identify faster which machine(s) triggered the breaker

The breaker in question is a very large one which -- if I'm reading this correctly, and I hope I'm not -- protects the input side of the UPS. So, there's already only one machine on the circuit. Internal distribution is going to be normal branch circuits, the tripping of which would only affect a small handful of machines.

APC's Smart-UPS products all produce pure sine waves these days, unlike Back-UPS, which are still approximated. They also have their Smart-UPS On-Line products; they're not that much more expensive, and provide much better quality power, obviously.

Anyone else experiencing erratic accessibility to Fremont linodes today? Mine has gone down twice, down right now. Trace from my LAN ends here:
14 19 ms 18 ms 21 ms linode-llc.10gigabitethernet2-2.core2.fmt1.he.net [64.71.180.158]
15 * * * Request timed out.

I can't get into LISH either.

Just curious...

yes, multiple physical nodes are not responding.
