20 GB + 25% = 25 GB
20 GB / 25 GB = 80% used.

My Linode in Newark has not had network issues since last year. Acquaintance has a large deployment there with 100.0% availability. Positive this is not problems with your stack or monitoring?
No, it isn't. In addition to using Pingdom, we are continuously monitoring availability from multiple different locations (these scripts also do DNS switching). Every time we detect an issue, we contact Linode and many times they confirm network issues (sometimes internal, sometimes upstream). Just two days back they confirmed one internal outage.

Why do I have to contact them to be told they are having an issue? Why can't they let me know asap so I can mitigate any problems they are having.
The last issue we had was their backup system was failing and by the time we discovered it, it had been broken for days.

If you had x disk space before, now you have 1.25x. That means your current usage is x / 1.25x = 0.8.

#76Well, my experience with Linode started well: good price, great interface, etc. Until somebody unrelated to me sent spam containing a URL pointing to one of my web sites. A recipient complained to Linode. Linode opened a ticket around 2am. At 6am, they simply shutdown my VPS becasue I didn't answer the ticket! I got the message a few hours later when I woke up.

#77I absolutely love Linode. I made the HORRIBLE mistake of using vps.net for over a year (from September 09 to September 10) and it was honestly the worst hosting experience of my life (and I keep an eye on them, still as bad as ever) so when I switched to Linode I was expecting more of the same, in over 8 months I have never had a problem, I've submitted 1 support ticket and that was because I needed help enabling bac…
VPS.NET was the worst VPS service I've ever tried. By far. It's hard to convey how bad and unreliable they were. Friends who tried VPS.NET had nothing but headaches as well, so it wasn't just me.

I am pretty happy with Linode for the most part and haven't experienced many issues. However when we have had issues, diagnosed the issue and filed a ticket we get always get told it is a known issue and "Apologize for inconvenience". Why do I have to contact them to be told they are having an issue? Why can't they let me know asap so I can mitigate any problems they are having. The last issue we had was their backup…
