Session
On Wednesday 26th of June, at 03:00, an orchestra of sad trombones (the ringtone of our on-call phones) rudely wakes me. Multiple systems report problems, but only sometimes: "the best kind of errors". What follows is a few weeks of intense debugging, together with the NLNOG community and heavily utilizing the NLNOG Ring.
During this story, we see why the NLNOG Ring and community are so important, the methodology behind debugging those impossible problems and the tooling created to pinpoint where exactly the problem existed.
