There are plenty of websites still down: https://www.centrepompidou.fr/en/. It surprises that important sites don't do mirroring. -R. ________________________________ From: Johann <adofou@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, March 12, 2021 12:41 AM To: Rod Beck <rod.beck@unitedcablecompany.com> Cc: Randy Bush <randy@psg.com>; Lukas Tribus <lukas@ltri.eu>; Eilers, Laura via NANOG <nanog@nanog.org> Subject: Re: OVH datacenter SBG2 in Strasbourg on fire ???? Several government websites have been impacted by fire. But >90% was operationnel during the same day after the incident. There are DRP (seems to be working) and backups in other datacenters. There must remain exceptions or minor things broken. But I think it's a pretty good result.

I think some government websites went down. France has a statist tradition that leads it to get involved in industries where has no expertise. ________________________________ From: NANOG <nanog-bounces+rod.beck=unitedcablecompany.com@nanog.org<mailto:unitedcablecompany.com@nanog.org>> on behalf of Randy Bush <randy@psg.com<mailto:randy@psg.com>> Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2021 9:43 PM To: Lukas Tribus <lukas@ltri.eu<mailto:lukas@ltri.eu>> Cc: Eilers, Laura via NANOG <nanog@nanog.org<mailto:nanog@nanog.org>> Subject: Re: OVH datacenter SBG2 in Strasbourg on fire ????

and a few hundred of us hoping we never have to stand in front of that camera to explain a similar incident a few things stood out: where backups are located, the ability to build a lot of new servers and the supporting infra, ... but in a week or two i hope he can tell us results of more analysis. randy --- randy@psg.com<mailto:randy@psg.com> `gpg --locate-external-keys --auto-key-locate wkd randy@psg.com<mailto:randy@psg.com>` signatures are back, thanks to dmarc header butchery
