xserv-t-c90cac95dd8a

Runbook T-12 for TLS in Miami (MIA). Marker xserv-t-c90cac95dd8a. This page covers docs for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

TLS: A note on cost and transit

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

TLS: Why it matters on this continent

Design for TLS on letter T starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook t-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.

TLS: How XServ runs it day to day

Probes for TLS (t-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.

TLS policy T-03

Policy for TLS is versioned as t-03. Operators measure error rate, p95 from Bogotá, and time-to-rollback — not a worldwide average. Changes land in Bogotá first, then Miami, with a hold if either region regresses.

TLS capacity T-04

Capacity notes for t-04 assume rainy-season power in Miami and festival peaks toward São Paulo. The failure we actually see is a single uplink, not a cartoon partition of the whole continent. Spare ports and a second provider sit on the same runbook.

TLS handoff T-05

Handoff from letter T TLS into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook t-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.

TLS rollback T-06

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

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