Blame the FIRE THREAD on LET.
I have five ≥1GB, ≤$16/year KVM servers. Are you jealous?
Oh well..
/me looks at the LE entrepreneurs losing billions due to lack of disaster recovery plans in place.
TL;DR Version:
Always, always and ALWAYS have back-ups in place. Depending on criticality, you may want to setup hourly, daily or weekly back-ups and store the files off-site. Preferably, at a different location / DC and provider.
Ouch.
Maybe this will finally get me to setup backups on my servers lol
Planned!
#insurance scam
I guess I will need to reinstall my VPS soon. I really hope that all of this is just a 'procedure' and not whole building is on fire...
No juicy photos/drone videos from site? Can't be that everyone is sleeping there, get on some French news page!
Yikes! Literally

Plan is activated but IP movement takes forever -
You cannot move this IP, as it is already in the process of being transferred. -
Does someone manage to move IPs out ?

Problem is that those all buildings are connected. Bah, you can even say it's one building.

Update 5:20pm. Everybody is safe.
Fire destroyed SBG2. A part of SBG1 is destroyed. Firefighters are protecting SBG3. no impact SBG4.
Interesting, never looked at the plans so didn't know they were almost wall to wall connected, assumed they'd be separate "buildings" in a small area as such.
That'll make it more interesting then...

Dont think "interesting" is the right word right now..
hm. I've lost a machine.. literally lost. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.
P sure they are basically a huge building.

This is sudden. In SBG, mainly game servers dropped out: i7-4790k, Ryzen 5/7, i7-6700k, i7-7700k.
There was already a global incident in 2017. But for everything to burn out in 2021.

Nice monitoring you got there /s
if you are affected and urgently need VPS for few days you can order from us and cancel in 7 days and you will get full refund
If you need more time pm me will figure something out
if you are looking for storage vps also pm will provide it although at this moment the performance is not great as we are doing major moves to update our storage servers

Guess the French gov. needs to open up their wallet again after this.

The word "destroyed" really shocked me. Hope everyone is OK.
I recall there was a mega power outage several years ago, and today another major incident hits. Sad enough.
ovh needed better firewalls
Reading the Twitter comments just...smfh. People really are idiots.

Hope staff made it out safely. It seems like SBG2 is fully gone and if you didn't have backups, you're toast.

wonder what's there to actually burn in these tin cans... with what did they isolate?
if you look at this vid don't get your hopes to have anything from "SBG2" recovered at all:

Looking at the pictures, their data center was more of a truck container than a building.Σ(゚д゚;)

That’s why my favourite CSGO server was down sadpikachu.jpg

Yeah it's basically shipping containers. I recall they were marketing how cheap it was to build because of this. Very worrying the fire suppression either failed or was not sufficient.
Saw somewhere that halogen suppression systems aren't allowed or something?

Yeah no wonder why they recommended everyone to activate their business recovery plan

Yeah, concerns about the ozone layer I think.
Argonite / IG55 is completely legal in EU and largely deployed in professional datacenters.
I am looking for information about fire suppression system at OVH but cannot find any.
I have a server in BHS1 and a backup on BHS2. Could I be affected like this in the future or are those DCs very far away from each other?
update twitter:
Update 7:20am
Fire is over. Firefighters continue to cool the buildings with the water.
We don’t have the access to the site. That is why SBG1, SBG3, SBG4 won’t be restarted today.
Whatever it is, one thing is safe to say, it wasn't very effective

I think even if they're 10 miles apart you should have backups with different providers in different locations.
