Octave Klaba (OVH CEO) on Twitter [0] :
Following a human error during the reconfiguration of the network in our DC in VH (US-EST), we had an issue on all the backbone. We're gonna isolate the DC VH then fix the configuration
Those last few days, DDoS attacks intensity has grown a lot. We decided to increase our DDoS handling capacity by adding new infrastructures in our DC VH (US-EST). A bad router configuration caused the network crash.

- rahen 5y agoIt's now back: https://status.ovh.com https://status.ovh.com Short lived incident fortunately...
- Kelteseth 5y agoDoes not work for me
- rahen 5y agoApparently it's only the status page. My mail servers have been down for just about a hour.
- sbierwagen 5y agoDown here. Comcast west coast.
- rgun 5y agoDown for me too. Although, seems like this time only the status page is down.
- tonylemesmer 5y agodown from the UK
- sumedh 5y agoStill down from Aus
- LinuxBender 5y agoI can ping the status IP but no HTTPS available from it, so routing is working externally. 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=1 ttl=249 time=276 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=2 ttl=249 time=1041 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=3 ttl=249 time=313 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=4 ttl=249 time=198 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=5 ttl=249 time=226 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=6 ttl=249 time=390 ms 72 bytes from 5.135.138.70: icmp_seq=7 ttl=249 time=865 ms Forgot I was using IP over carrier pigeon
- daveguy 5y agoHughesNet?
- LinuxBender 5y agoEven worse if you can believe that. Hopefully it is temporary.
- mdrzn 5y agoHow is it still down for me..? Also, I can access my OVH VPS from an Italian IP, but if I try with a VPN from outside my country, I get error 521.
- laurent92 5y agoSeems like the best DDoS attack is to persuade the target to change their backbone configuration. Then they’ll take themselves out.
- mjw1007 5y agoSo the CEO's twitter feed had information at 08:00 UTC, but the official ovh_status feed didn't even acknowledge the incident until 08:22. That seems the wrong way round.
- agilob 5y agoTwitter and Reddit are the true status pages
- fogihujy 5y agoThe description of the ovh_status account explicitly mentions it's an unofficial account: > Unofficial OVH Status Feed
- mjw1007 5y agoArgh. And it has a pretty user image which attempts to say that. Only the image is conveniently cropped to a circle so that the "Un" part isn't visible and it reads "OFFICI".
- si458 5y agodidnt facebook have the exact same issue the other day but theres was all there datacenters rather than a single DC?
- jaywalk 5y agoExact same? I doubt it. The only similarity (that we know of) is that there was a router configuration change. In Facebook's case, there wasn't even supposed to be a configuration change, just a look at some data.
- peatfreak 5y ago> "gonna" Truly, only a professional outfit could have written a Twitter update with spelling like this.
