The AWS Management Console for EC2 indicates which availability zone is impaired. *Translation: EBS is still broke, and you guys can't log in to the AWS Console to check on which AZ is down anyway* ------------- 2:06 PM PDT We are continuing to see elevated error rates with the EC2 Management Console. *Translation: Worldwide AWS console hosted only in US-EAST is down* ------------- 1:02 PM PDT Customers can launch replacement instances in the unaffected availability zones but may experience elevated launch latencies or receive ResourceLimitExceeded errors on their API calls, which are being issued to manage load on the system during recovery. Customers receiving this error can retry failed requests. *Translation: You have zero chance of being able to launch new instance via the AWS Console which is still down, or the API. Keep retrying though. * -------------- 2:20 PM PDT We've now restored performance for about half of the volumes that experienced issues. *Translation: We've fixed the cluster of servers running the AWS Console.* -------------- Customers with ELBs running in only the affected Availability Zone may be experiencing elevated error rates and customers may not be able to create new ELBs in the affected Availability Zone. *Translation: Elastic Load Balancers are dropping all requests.* ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
