The Planet

[VOIPoTim]

BTW, this The Planet stuff is getting out of control pretty quick.

Everyone is trying to figure out why there's been a constant meltdown: http://forums.theplanet.com/index.php?showtopic=91453

Their DNS servers were down for 3 hours on top of all the random latency. We're happy we'd already started migrating or there would have been a more serious outage last night.

Keep in mind we have over 10K servers there (HostGator) and we're their largest customer by far. We've never seen any major ongoing issues with TP at all until recently in the 5 years or so we've used them that was not resolved very quickly.

They did a switch upgrade a while back and since then, their network issues have been never ending. The switch upgrade in question was this one ( http://forums.voipo.com/showthread.php?t=1226 ). They upgraded ALL their switches with this upgrade a few at a time, but we can't convince them that's when it started.
