Summary

Service Issue: Longview

Starting around 23:15 UTC on June 15, 2026, some customers were unable to access the Longview graph dashboard. The investigation revealed that Linodes were unable to reach the Longview endpoint and were failing to report data. The impact was limited to reading the existing reporting data only and there was no permanent reporting data loss due to this issue. To mitigate the impact, we manually rebooted identified VM boxes to take effect and resolve Gateway errors. The impact was mitigated at 9:00 UTC on June 16, 2026, following this action. Post-mitigation, all expected data is available in the Longview graph dashboard. We will continue to investigate the root cause and will take appropriate preventive actions. We apologize for the impact and thank you for your patience and continued support. We are committed to making continuous improvements to make our systems better and prevent recurrence. This summary provides an overview of our current understanding of the incident given the information available. Our investigation is ongoing, and any information herein is subject to change.
