Hi,

For SERVFAIL to happen, ALL authoritative for the affected domains must have been in Datacenters in Spain, Portugal or southern France.

I live in Spain, and as 12:33 CET I lost not only power but basic telephony, cellular telephony and cellular data. Everything. Power generators were only good for keeping power locally at Datacenters or Hospitals, but they were isolated from each other.

The mitigation began at around 2-3pm CET , as they were turning up different power plants one at a time and connecting it to the power network, and it took them more than 12 hours to turn everything up.

So may be that was the reason, if it coincides with your perception ... dnstracer has eventually helped me find lame delegations.

I strongly suspect that this was caused (even if indirectly?) by the MASSIVE and many-hours-long power outages in Europe, mainly in Spain and Portugal. That started on April 28, 2025, at approximately 6:33 a.m. Eastern Time (ET) - and the majority of it lasted almot 24 hours.

Hopefully, you're not seeing any more of these errors now?
