We are having significant disruptions and degradations of service with no ETR. If you are a current tenant we encourage you to make offsite backup a priority and to seek alternative hosting.

NOTICE:
The AARCH64 console and all x86 nodes at ODG1 will experience intermittent outages as DC teams work hardware issues with multiple nodes.
We don't expect service interruptions for AARCH64 VMs.
Thanks to the WebNX team for prompt response and ongoing support of Fosshost!

We're experiencing RAM issues with our Boston AArch64 node. All the affected tenants have been contacted to create a new VM on another node, and we're moving the VM disks in the affected node to the new VMs, in order to minimize the impact.
