Site reports
Lancaster: We discovered (unsurprisingly) a redirector becomes really sad when all the gateways behind it fall over, which we found out the hard way over the weekend. During the chaos the redirector rebuilt so we’re rocky8 all round now, and thanks to a few “days off” our ceph is generally a lot happier.
