Dylan and Tabish,
I sent the naughty providers a cancellation this morning and got a response from them late this evening basically asking why -- my response to them was not nice to say the least. ;) We'll get you some more DSs else where. I'll try to find another place with remote reboot strips maybe in South America. I have a bunch of old dedicated server bookmarks that I haven't looked at in a while....
Finding good dedicated server places is tough. There's no way to know what kind of infrastructure these places have and no way to anticipate who will be good and who won't. :(
-Ben

I've submitted a ticket about the down servers to IT. I'll have to check on the SB ones manually tomorrow.
I have told Grodsky to cancel one of the other DSs due to their lack of customer support.

Dylan, we checked again today and many of the ones that were down yesterday are down again today.
Doesn't seem like they're experiencing temporary problems that can be resolved by a restart. Something else is going on with them.
See attached under "2nd check" column to see which ones are still down. Thanks

I've just restarted all of them. They should come back online soon.

Dylan,
More than half of our servers seem to be dead. Please take a look at the attached sheet. We went through our servers 1 by 1 to determine if they're active and hitting.
All the ones in red are dead or not connectable. We didn't ping each one, just tried to manaully connect.
