"A status update time-stamped 2249 UTC on November 5th advises that as of 1700 UTC on the same day, "a subset of customers in the West Europe region may experience service disruptions or degraded performance across multiple services, including Virtual Machines, Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Servers, MySQL Flexible Servers, Azure Kubernetes Service, Storage, Service Bus, and Virtual Machine Scale Sets, among others.""
"The West Europe region is in the Netherlands. The Windows giant blamed the problems on "a thermal event affecting datacenter cooling systems, which led to a subset of storage scale units going offline in a single availability zone." Microsoft said the incident occurred after automated monitoring systems detected a spike in hardware temperatures and related service incidents across multiple storage scale units."
"Microsoft also warns that users of Azure Databricks in West Europe "may see degraded performance when launching or scaling all-purpose and jobs compute workloads, impacting Unity Catalog and Databricks SQL operations." The company said one impacted storage scale unit has recovered, recovery efforts are in progress on others, and it expects to see signs of recovery on those units "in approximately 90 minutes." Microsoft has also warned that "Resources in other availability zones that depend on these storage units may also be impacted.""
A thermal event in Azure's West Europe datacenter caused cooling-system issues that took a subset of storage scale units offline in a single availability zone. Automated monitoring detected a spike in hardware temperatures and related service incidents across multiple storage units. Multiple Azure services including Virtual Machines, databases, Kubernetes, Storage, Service Bus, VM Scale Sets, and Azure Databricks experienced disruptions or degraded performance. One affected storage scale unit has recovered and recovery work is underway on others, with signs of recovery expected in approximately 90 minutes. Resources in other availability zones that depend on the affected storage units may also be impacted.
