Runbook H-36 for High availability in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-h-6cf63fdc643b. This page covers docs for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

High availability: A note on cost and transit

Rollback for h-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while High availability prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.

High availability: Why it matters on this continent

Design for High availability on letter H starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook h-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.

High availability: How XServ runs it day to day

Probes for High availability (h-02) leave Santiago every 15s toward Bogotá. XServ pages the named owner if loss or RTT crosses the letter budget. A probe never shares a queue with bulk transfers, so a saturated WAN does not hide a dead PoP.

High availability rollback H-06

Rollback for h-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while High availability prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.

High availability peering H-07

Peering for High availability (h-07) prefers the IX fabric that already carries last-mile ISPs in Bogotá. Session counts and prefix limits are on the same page as the Miami backup path.

High availability cache H-08

Cache rules for High availability on h-08 keep language-correct objects near Miami. São Paulo is a sibling cache, not an origin. TTLs are short enough that a bad asset does not live through a weekend.

High availability headers H-09

Headers for h-09 carry the letter, the region (GRU) and a request id. High availability debugging in São Paulo should not require a packet capture in Santiago first.

Is transit the default path?
No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.
Does High availability on letter H share fate with other letters?
The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for High availability stay isolated, so incident h-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
