Yes VPS was down for about 20 minutes (according to my log). Personally, it's not a big issue, but for whatever reason, everytime it happens, it seems to go undetected by Bet Angel Support.
Australian racing
I commit money every day to Aussie racing, so we do keep an eye on it. I traded last Saturday manually as well.
It's not as though I don't have an incentive to pay attention. But it's difficult to comment specifically on what you are seeing as I haven't seen it myself.
We are always happy to swap out servers if you want to try a different one.

From my own perspective I’ve always been very well treated by support. Plus there is not much that can be done in the middle of the night in the uk.
To try and be more specific about the issue - the ability to remotely connect to the server becomes difficult/ impossible and the connection itself is unstable. The connection keeps dropping out and instructions are processed at a snails pace.
I think when it happened two years ago it was because something happened to the whole rack my server was in. And Support quickly arranged for a new server in a different rack.
Overall though I can count on one hand, three fingers to be precise, the issues over the last 7 years. Two of the times when it was a Saturday I switched over to my home set up. An exceptional record from my perspective.

Ok. Went in to my server log on the vps and this is the incident.
NtpClient was unable to set a manual peer to use as a time source because of DNS resolution error on 'time.windows.com,0x8'. NtpClient will try again in 15 minutes and double the reattempt interval thereafter. The error was: No such host is known. (0x80072AF9)
This happened at 1:01:23 pm Sydney time.
So that is when it appears the incident happened if that is in anyway helpful.

Interesting, that later part hasn't happened to me. I guess no bets would indicate a complete outage.
This morning I notice my vps is actually lightening quick and I have a better connection than usual. Typically I only have 1 bar on the connection strength bar, but today I have two bars.
Although ANZAC day meetings tend to resemble a Wednesday (although could be different becasue tomorrow is still weekend).
In any case ...

The only good thing about tonight was Lizzie Jelf showing a bit of breast. I had a £32 back bet on the group one, a chunk was taken and I must have waited 15-30 seconds for the rest of it to go even though there was no spread or money in front of it!
Last G1 of the season and a bit of slow day it seems.
Prepare for the slide of Aussie racing towards winter.
