Anyone else getting messages that the Aruba Instant On Portal is having issues?

 

AP is not talking to the cloud, and trying to login in gets "Servers having technical issues"

 

 

 

Tried from multiple ISPs - just checking it's not an issue with our account :)

It would be OK - except my Aruba AP seems to reboot or lock up every half hour so everything drops off - will have to investigate that when everything is green again :)

 

Thankfully not an Alexa household :)

The AWS issues are still ongoing according to the service status above :(

 

Instant On is still down - but they now have a better outage message :)

A haiku about DNS : r/homelab

 

 

 

 

On one hand. I'm glad for my self hosted infra being on multiple different providers in different locations (including my own home) and it's still running.

 

 

 

On the other hand. I feel very empathetic to all of the engineers still dealing with this today. It feels like we're too reliant on AWS, GCP, Azure etc etc. I know it's not the decisions of the engineers... It's others in higher positions... But we really need to remember not to put everything in one bucket and have high availability in other locations.

 

 

 

Maybe I'm out of touch here.
