Interruption of RIPE Database and Related Services
by Trudy Prins 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, Starting at approximately 14:30 UTC on 4 October 2015, RIPE Database queries and updates, the LIR Portal and other related services experienced problems. Our investigation found that the service interruptions were due to a hardware failure. The queries were restored at 16:00 UTC and other affected services were restored at around 21:00 UTC. The ability of the RIPE Database to process incoming mail-updates was restored at 12:30 UTC on 5 October 2015. Please be aware that all mail-updates sent to Whois during this outage period must be considered lost. A summary of the hardware failure is as follows: The RAID controller on the master MySQL server reinitialised all of a sudden, causing IO errors. Unfortunately, we also experienced another (unrelated) hardware problem at the same time with the external load balancers. This combination of issues significantly affected the time it took us to rectify the situation. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Kind regards, Trudy Prins Software Engineering Manager

Email Resource Requests No Longer Supported
by Ingrid Wijte 01 Jun '15

01 Jun '15

Dear colleagues, On 7 October 2014, we announced our timeline for phasing out the text-based email request forms on our website: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ncc-services-wg/2014-October/002890… While the forms themselves were archived in March, we have continued accepting these forms to allow members time to adjust their internal processes. As the final part of this implementation, we will now no longer accept resource requests by email. Members can now use either the request forms available through the LIR Portal, or the Resource Request API which can be found here: https://www.ripe.net/support/documentation/developer-documentation/resource… In order to maintain transparency, we have also published the information LIRs need to provide in order to complete a request form: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-management/supporting-not… Kind regards Ingrid Wijte Registration Services Assistant Manager RIPE NCC
