We're currently seeing increased latency to/from China for our Seattle network due to suspected fiber cuts on the US west coast, this appears to be heavily impacting China Unicom's network (AS4837) which has likely lost considerable capacity. CMIN2 should not see any impact apart from a temporary 20ms latency increase due to a re-route caused by the fiber cuts. This shouldn't take too long to be resolved.
The fiber cut was fixed at 4pm UTC and we can confirm everything is now looking normal.
Confirmed fiber cut, here is the explanation from our transport provider: There is a fiber cut between Vacaville, CA and Sacramento, CA. The fiber cut was caused by a car hitting a utility pole.
It's likely that China Unicom is suffering capacity loss due to this same incident, there is no estimated fix time yet.

One of the two PDUs in the Seattle cabinet IGW1.13.3 has gone offline, this will mean some dedicated servers are offline (if your dedicated server ID starts with IGW1.13.3) and VPS server SEABKVM5.
We're getting the PDU checked currently.
The equipment that went offline is currently powered by a temporary PDU so things were online quicker, we will schedule a maintenance window in the coming days to swap back to the permanent PDU.
Everything is now back online, as of 05:20 UTC, at least temporarily. We're awaiting further updates from the data centre.
The data centre has informed us that they're working on getting temporary power to the affected PDU so hopefully the downtime will not be the full time mentioned.
We received an update from the data centre that the power outlet on their side has failed and they need to re-run a new cable to a new outlet. This process will unfortunately take 2 - 3 hours but they are expediting it as much as possible.

Our Seattle AS4837 is no longer being used for routing due to a fault. We have contacted our network provider and are awaiting an update.
