Sounds like someone didn't save the running config in RBX..........
Hosted exchange is still down
There control panel is still broken, lots of services are not loaded. Login takes several retries before accepted.
Sounds it.... I've seen this happen so many times in my career which is ridiculous.
Lost power = lost config.
For a large hoster like OVH to do this... This is massive oversight and really shitty.
Well, it took me less time to migrate to netcup than for them to get the DC back online. I wish them all the best.
The number of times I've seen this happen is unbelievable. Apparently typing wr is too difficult for a lot of people.
The statement reads as if they had some Solution(TM) from some vendor that half-assedly automated what a network administrator would have done competently. Very OVH.
When you have hundreds of devices to manage, usually noone manages them by hand, i.e. by typing config, saving it, etc. All the management is done by some centralized system which generates and uploads configs to the devices.
It's nice to see that you care about other providers, but I think you should stick to your own business as this just looks like you trying to bring down a company to make yours look better. If your company is that good, you should not need such childish tactics.
Of course. But this system didn't do it right - or at least they shift blame to it.
It is 10s of thousands not hundreds !
Im glad my server is in ovh poland
Then go to AWS and let your bill go up 500% in bandwidth costs alone
FAAAAAILOVER
Problem solved.
I told you to stop calling me that in public!
....
Hosted exchange is back up
That's one thing I never expected you to type. Don't you run Exchange 5.5 internally?
Still dozens of servers in "Service Mode" at SBG. Duh. Wondering how long this will take. I'll check the situation again in about three hours.

Common man, we all have a dig at the Giants when we can, it does not really mean anything,
Sorry guys, I tripped over the single power cable and never did a write after conf t.
haha, well, I appreciate it is the 'dark side' but frankly I don't think there is a better more elastic and flexible mail solution that MAPI/MS Exchange for business.
"Especially with many servers which will have broken arrays and drives after such incident."
This is exactly the stuff I'm worried about. Let's hope it's not total disaster.
Man I think I'll have a mental breakdown if I have to deal with broken arrays after this!
What raid level did you have?
There really isn't. There are plenty of attempts and workarounds to have similar functionality- but once you've suckled the teet of Bill, it's difficult to let go. I've been there. It took me years to get a flow nearly as usable (at the expense of sanity) even with my small business ventures. Exchange is fucking trash, but damn if Outlook isn't the bees knees (when not SalesForce).
This is LET. RAID-7DLRS
Am i the only one on this site not with OVH?
Netcup and Time4VPS so Im safe here :P
RAID 1 (Hardware). Reckon I'll be ok?!
Just my luck. Got servers in almost every one of those 'red' racks!
