I just chatted Rackspace (the Sales Dept to see what they would say), they said to me that all new accounts will be in the VA-DC facility, and not in the Dallas facility.<p>They never seem to have these problems in the San Antonio HQ facility. I wonder what the problem is with this particular Dallas facility. What could be the difference between the Dallas and San Antonio facilities? San Antonio seems to run like a clock, and the Dallas center seems to be starting to look like the Corvair--unsafe at any speed.
When Rackspace has an outage does that generally mean Slicehost does as well? I ask because I was looking at using Slicehost but being a Rackspace company has me leery.
I was able to ssh into my server on one IP, but not another, which also meant some sites worked and others didn't. Seems like a network connectivity issue.
philip: when is rackspace going to be back up?<p>Anarka F: looks like we just lost connection to a server in Dallas I do not have details since it just happened can I have your name and email address and I will send you details as soon as everything is back up<p>Anarka F: our engineers are on top of things! hang tight!
