We're investigating this now. Details in a few.

Seems like we had a power issue on these nodes not to long ago. I think it was said someone was in the cage, and kicked out a plug.

What's the deal with these people?

They weren't in our cage this time. I'm still waiting for a reply from them, but regardless we're going to move a spare host off this circuit (load on the circuit before whatever happened was below the 80% rule), just in case.

Linodes are booting now.

Thanks for the update. Hope the power stays on for awhile now :lol:

Turns out they were nearby our cage installing our new fiber uplinks and jostled the RPC's plug out...

What we can surmise so far is that the rpc cable was a bit loose in the outlet. While tiles were being moved to bring your fiber in there was enough disturbance to jar it and cause an interruption in current. We have used some cable ties to fasten the plug to the power strip and repeated this on the other rpc connections as well.

Aside from the big outage on 31 March 2005, Dallas Linodes have had power issues that appear to be down to The Planet (rather than Linode) on eight occasions:
  • * 24 Dec 2003 - breaker trip - TP caused overload
  • * 03 Sep 2004 - breaker trip in Linode RPC after TP techs installed new server
  • * 26 Jun 2005 - power feed reconfiguration pops a breaker
  • * 28 Jun 2005 - and again
  • * 23 Nov 2005 - mislabeled plugs cause wrong Linode to reboot
  • * 21 Aug 2007 - breaker trip - TP caused overload by ignoring Linode's instructions about what to connect where
  • * 01 Nov 2007 - TP power switch burned out
  • * 14 April 2008 - TP - two power circuits on one breaker - so it popped

plus today.

Maybe The Planet needs one of these.

I know there are less Linodes at Fremont, but I don't recall there ever being a power issue there.
