We witnessed a major outage on this server today. Here is a memo from MidPhase NOC

esc88 - Network Issues

By Andy Pace | September 12, 2007 @ 1:30 pm

We are currently experiencing some routing issues from the western part of the United States to a shared server located in our Chicago datacenter, esc88.midphase.com. Some customers may experience minor latency and intermittent downtime as we diagnose the problem. We will update this post as soon as more information is available.

We appreciate your patience and understanding!

It appears as though MidPhase is using Eastern time zone for their time stamps. We use mountain time zone here. This was our stats report.

We are still impressed they notified all of those who may have experienced downtime via their website. Look for this on next months server report issued around October 1st.
