All Systems Down
(7:30 AM) All system back. There was a major data center outage that latest between 2:30 AM EST and 6:30 AM EST this morning, 2/22/2010. The secondary data centers were online and working, however due to a DNS configuration error, were not picking up the traffic resulting in failures to deliver media files, RSS feeds, web players, allow logins, or uploading media.
A core aspect of our service was unavailable for 4 hours- and we do not take these issues lightly. Our backup and failover process will be thoroughly reviewed and revised as needed today to ensure this double failure does not happen again.
(6:00 AM) Partial connectivity has been restored. A router failure at the primary data center had caused the majority of issues experienced over the last few hours. The secondary datacenters are available however traffic is not going to that failover. The team is working on the issues.
(3:17 AM) The support team is working with the data center regarding a hardware and network related issue. All services are down at this point
(2:30 AM) Issues with media delivery and web players. Support team being notified
