  • 17:27 pybal recovers, ocg.svc.eqiad.wmnet reachable again

Conclusions

OCG was down for ~30min due to a combination of factors, namely row diversity isn't fully implemented with two service hosts being in the same rack and row that was undergoing maintenance bug T148506. The remaining OCG host is in row C but under maintenance at the time of the incident bug T161158.
