Incident Date: March 23, 2020
Incident Number: PR-1022
On March 23, 2020, at 9:00 AM ET, the Tucows HostedEmail platform experienced service interruptions, impacting Inbound/outbound mail deliveries and mailbox accessibility in prod A.
The service interruption was caused due to a high load on a network storage device.
The operations team performed multiple maintenance to minimize the impact and migrated mailboxes to a different network storage device. The migration process was spread out over a couple of maintenance windows due to the high volume of users residing on the affected network storage device.
On March 26, 2020, at 7:30 PM ET, The Operations team restored all the services and stabilized the load in the email environment.
Preventive measures: As part of the ongoing stabilization efforts in cluster A, Tucows will continue to increase and provision additional capacity and continue with the load distribution efforts to prevent further client impact.
Thank you,
Tucows Operations
