HoundWire Ops team prove their chops
HoundWire suffered the first outage in its history tonight. At 8:14 PM, our Ops team detected the service was down. A rapid diagnosis process ensued. Power: operational. Servers: operational. Routers: operational. Internet connectivity: Down. The problem: a hound had inflicted multiple bite wounds to a cable. It is perhaps fitting that if HoundWire went down, it did so due to the work of a hound. The cable was quickly replaced, the hound properly disciplined and banned from the premises, and HoundWire went back into operation at 9:30 PM.
