体验Linode VPS Down机

今早凌晨临睡前，躺在床上习惯性的刷刷我的几个程序的状态报告，额，有俩程序怎么两个多小时没有新动态了？这不科学啊。好吧，估摸是网络故障啥的，一般网络故障，恢复后我的程序会自动重新连接，大可不必担心。又等了大约半个小时，发现状态还没有更新，我意识到事情可能有些不对劲了。

放在家里小设备上的程序一切正常，放在SOFTLAYER独立服务器上的程序一切，唯独放在VPS上的程序不正常，那么就登陆VPS的面板看看吧。我的几个VPS都放在Linode，登陆面板一下子就看到大大的黄色提示信息，说有重要的内容未查看。

点进去一看，果然有个紧急维护通知：
Emergency Maintenance

然后随后是一条更新：

大概意思就是我VPS所在的服务器出故障啦，他们解决掉故障并帮我重启VPS啦。
可问题是我的程序没设置开机自动运行，所以虽然VPS重启起来了，但是我的程序并没有启动。

一边哀叹自己劳碌命，一边从床上爬起来，使用putty登陆vps，把程序启动起来，看了一眼，一切正常，迷糊糊的继续去睡。

睡了大概不到两个小时，乱七八糟的梦做了一大堆，总觉得有心事一般，醒了过来，又刷了一下状态报告，我晕，怎么还没有新动态，我明明已经把程序启动起来了啊。该不会又出问了吧？

登陆Linode的面板，果然又是大大的黄色提示信息。

an issue, an additional issue, 话说你们确定不是再玩我？
又双叒叕出故障，又重启，能不能让我睡个安稳觉了？

好吧，起床，开机，登陆，重启程序，顺便把程序加到自动启动里。不管了，睡觉去，有能耐你再出故障？！

一觉醒来，一切正常，Linode也没再出故障，可惜一晚上，我只睡了两三个小时，害人不浅啊。不过倒是提醒了我，不能指望服务器/VPS永不DOWN机，要考虑到这种情况才对。
