According to @kovaya, "linode's problems in Dallas are NETWORK not host related. Linodes are all OK, network is getting attention."

Right now, http://twitter.com/#search?q=linode seems to be the best way to get information.

My linode is unreachable and pinging my linode's IP gets 100% packet loss, so it's not just DNS or anything.

down since 11:12 EST (according to my wasitup.com notifications)

No problems for me with my linode in the Fremont datacenter.
My St. Louis linode is up and running.
There is no Linode datacenter in St. Louis (Last time I checked, at least)
haha, I forgot I switched from slicehost. My VPS _used_ to be in st.louis at slicehost but is now in Atlanta.
Yup. My server in Dallas is down. However, my server is New Jersey is still up and running. Are there any other server locations down other than Dallas?
Dallas, Newark, Fremont, Atlanta, and London.

EDIT: Haha, sorry, read that wrong. I thought he was wondering if there were any server locations other than Dallas.

My London Linode doesn't seem to be down.
Mine in Fremont CA are fine.
I'm logged in to my NJ linode right now and it seems fine.

I've got two linodes in Dallas that are down. Another server in the same datacenter (with Webfaction) is still up and running.
As stated, NJ noc linodes seem to be up. My sites there are responding to http requests. But linode.com dashboard / admin ui is unreachable
My ATL nodes are up and running. I don't think I've had any downtime with them at all in the last couple of years, at least not memorable ones.
Not working for me. I'm from Singapore.
This service is handy right about now...

Seems to just be Dallas. Anyone know what data center that is and who else is there (to see how widespread it is).

Webfaction is in that datacenter and they seem unaffected.

It's The Planet. I have two servers there and both are up, but TP actually has 6 different datacenter networks in Dallas (last I checked, anyway), so that doesn't necessarily mean anything. But searching Twitter for @theplanet during a Planet outage usually leads to all sorts of evidence of an outage, and there's none at the moment unrelated to Linode.
Totally subjective, but with slicehost I recall that their Dallas center had problems noticeably more often.

Is there something about Dallas, for Linode or Slicehost or both?

Dallas seemed to be a problem for mosso -> Rackspace Cloud Sites, too. Just setup a linode in Dallas for a client last week, too. I hesitated to use Dallas, but I thought surely I was being irrational. It's still probably true that I was, but dang.
Mine in Atlanta seems fine.
Our linode in Newark is fine, but all of Newark was unavailable for almost two hours a couple of weeks ago.
We have nodes in all 5 Linode data centers. Currently only the Dallas node is down. We document all outages here: http://cloudharmony.com/status (click on the Linode links to view previous outages and outage documentation). Atlanta has been the most reliable data center for us (no outages in 6 months we've been up there).
Looks like the Dallas datacenter is back online now.
