Ouch, major fire at SBG2 - Not good.
Blame the FIRE THREAD on LET.
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
Octave OVH CEO has posted on his twitter the below statement /cry

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 ?
It’s SBG2 and seems to have affected whole of SBG2 according to octave on twitter, 1,3,4 i assume will be back up when its safe to restore power
holy shit. that's a huge nightmare situation.
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..
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
Anyone who has servers in SBG2 it's pretty much guaranteed toast, SBG1 partial destroyed basically according to Oles on Twitter:
Hope it doesnt escalate to SBG3, or I piss my pants!!!!
5:20pm, eh?
If anyone needs assistance, please reach out to me. I know we're very far from this OVH datacenter location, but if there's anything that can be done, I'm glad to help.
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![:( :(](https://lowendtalk.com/resources/emoji/frowning.png)
Reading the Twitter comments just...smfh. People really are idiots.
