Scheduled network maintenance for opal3 and opal8

On 20 August 2026 between 11:00am and 4:00pm PDT (UTC-7) our data center team will be upgrading the racks that host the following servers:

  • opal3.opalstack.com
  • opal8.opalstack.com

During the 5-hour maintenance window, network connectivity to the affected servers will be interrupted for up to 1 hour during which websites and other services hosted on the servers will be unavailable.

Email and DNS services will not be affected.

The hosting control panel will remain online, but will be unable to apply changes to your services until connectivity to the server is restored.

Affected customers who would like have their services relocated to a different server prior to 20 August 2026 should contact the Opalstack support team to make the necessary arrangements.

DNS: USA Partial DNS outage.

During a routine DNS update our Secondary DNS provider captured an incomplete zone update and propagated it. This means that various DNS services for opalstack.com services (DNS, Mail, and Web) are inconsistently available.

We have removed the Secondary provider and we expect this to resolve over the next hour as the DNS TTL caches time out.

  • The DNS issue is fully resolved now.

    Note that while this issue affected only the Opalstack US name servers and only for the domain opalstack.com. Since all of our regional services use the opalstack.com domain, effects of this issue may have been seen by customers outside of the US.

    If you're still having trouble connecting to Opalstack services then please try flushing your local DNS cache
