Onnly bother reading if you are interested in what happened last night…...

Hello Giles Padmore,

This is a short announcement in advance of a more detailed one later today in response to a MAJOR network problem experienced last night and into today. Everything is now back up and online which was our first priority though we are still working on some load issues related to the backup LAN not being fully functional yet.

We will now be carrying out a detailed investigation before sending out a full RFO (Reason for Outage) within 24 hours. In summary, during some scheduled maintenance most of our enclosures suffered a switch fault which appears to be related to a rogue firmware version that rendered it useless. This required us to replace all of the switches and restore the config to each port within the switch to restore the network connections to each rack. Unfortunately there was a domino effect across other servers too causing problems with our internal infrastructure (eg support portal), master DNS and email cluster.

Our helpdesk and other methods of communication are fully online and can be used if anyone has any questions. However, we do ask that questions related to the issues here are help until after the RFO as the information available at this time is limited. Throughout the incident incoming emails have been getting queued which is still getting worked through.

This has been a horrendous outage and is being treated with absolute priority and urgency. Further details will follow as previously mentioned.

Please do not reply directly to this email as it is sent from an unmonitored email account. To contact us please open a support ticket in the appropriate dept: http://www.clook.info/helpdesk/

Kind regards,

Clook Internet
