This evening at approximately 11:30pm Pacific, we need to take the site into read-only mode for an emergency update to our edge routers. It should only take approximately 15 minutes as we implement the necessary setting changes. We will do our best to keep as much functionality available during the maintenance, however it is possible a full outage may occur beyond read-only.
We are confident that this should help prevent the routing instability we saw earlier this morning. Sorry for the inconvenience, please check back here for updates after 10pm.
21:09 PDT – pushing back to 11:30pm tonight
23:57 – still have not been able to start due to a problem with one of the related routers that we can fix in the background. Hope to start shortly after this is complete. Sorry for the continued delay
03:05 – we’ve completed the troubleshooting and will be going into read-only shortly to start/complete the fix.
03:24 – reload complete, staying in read-only for a few more moments to make sure we’re good to go. routers are all happy!
03:38 – back out of read-only. thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience
