Fremont Virtuals Slow to reboot 6/22

We have a virtual which wasn't responding to SSH / SMTP (its an SMTP Relay for us).

We decided to reboot the machine and its been 25 minutes , and we are still not back online / rebooted.

Anyone else seeing their nodes down in Fremont?

We are @ 30 minutes + to reboot our virtual

took 40 minutes and we're finally getting migrated to another cluster.

We actually moved our DNS for our SMTP server back to our original server @ our other data center.

Have you considered investing in a high availability setup if the service that server is delivering is that critical?

Yes, but its a manual process and doubles the cost.

Floating IP

(2) Linodes

in event of failure we move the floating IP to the hot spare.
