Concurrently, additional nodes experienced crashes. This convergence of events, though extremely unlikely, unfortunately transpired. Our top-tier technical team is diligently working to restore the vSAN storage cluster at the earliest. We deeply regret the inconvenience and appreciate your patience, especially as our support channels are currently overwhelmed.”

Estimated Time of Resolution: As of 05:00 UTC on October 2nd, Rochen reported that some VMs have been fully restored and are operational. However, restoration efforts continue for the remaining affected servers.
Our Response: We are maintaining regular communication with Rochen. We have confidence in our long-standing partner to address and rectify these issues effectively.
We deeply regret the inconvenience and are dedicated to taking measures to minimize such disruptions in the future. Your patience and understanding during this challenging time are greatly appreciated.
