I just update the system through yum update command.
After that, I reboot the VPS, then, lost the connection to this VPS and web site.
I create a ticket on servermania support. The support team replied in 20 minutes.
After two conversation between Andrew and me.
He told me that the problem is:
The yum update had broken the iprouting on the OS which caused the venet to not come up.
It is reported yesterday noon. Site is down. I can not access WEB, FTP, and even the control panel of this VPS @ServerMania .
Nothing I can do from my side.
I created the ticket. Based on the reply from support staff of ServerMania, it is a DDOS attack from somewhere.
I wait until this morning about 2AM. The VPS is back online. and I can access my VPS.
It is a very popular service on web application and mobile apps. I like its server service.
The servers New Relic supported includes Linux, Windows.:
