xserv-u-8e225b96e908
Runbook U-54 for Uptime in Santiago (SCL). Marker xserv-u-8e225b96e908. This page covers rollback for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.
Uptime: A note on cost and transit
Rollback for u-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while Uptime prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.
Uptime: Why it matters on this continent
Design for Uptime on letter U starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook u-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.
Uptime: How XServ runs it day to day
Probes for Uptime (u-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.

Uptime policy U-03
Policy for Uptime is versioned as u-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.
Uptime capacity U-04
Capacity notes for u-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.
Uptime handoff U-05
Handoff from letter U Uptime into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook u-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.

- How fast is rollback for u-03?
- The runbook is a command plus a named owner. There is no wait for a weekly change freeze.
