Question 1

Question 2

How do I get notified when Equinix Metal goes down?

Accepted Answer

Create a Statusfield account and subscribe to Equinix Metal monitoring. You'll receive instant notifications via email, Slack, or webhook when Equinix Metal experiences any service disruption. Notifications are sent within seconds of detecting status changes across all 8 Equinix Metal components.

Question 3

Why not just subscribe to Equinix Metal's status page?

Accepted Answer

Equinix Metal's own subscribe button sends you every notice it publishes, at one priority, to one inbox — maintenance windows and major outages alike, across all 8 components. Statusfield lets you subscribe to only the components you depend on, and route each severity to a different place: a major outage to PagerDuty, degraded performance to Slack, maintenance to nowhere. It also keeps one dashboard for every vendor you depend on instead of one subscription per vendor, and records every status change and every alert it sent — useful when an auditor asks how you monitor third-party providers.

What do Equinix Metal status levels mean?

Accepted Answer

Equinix Metal status levels indicate service health: Operational (all systems working normally), Degraded Performance (reduced functionality), Partial Outage (some components affected), Major Outage (significant service disruption), and Under Maintenance (scheduled maintenance). Statusfield tracks these statuses across 8 components to provide granular monitoring.
