It's technology, it happens! We appreciate your team taking action to get everything back up and running. Here's to a great 2023!
It's working now
@Ella -- Have you removed the calendar and re-imported it as Airbnb suggests?
@Dori123 -- I see a manual send of a keycodes trigger in your account, but the reason that trigger didn't fire is that it wasn't applicable to the booking's listing site. If there was a different trigger that didn't fire, please write in to the helpdesk with the details and we'll trace the reason.
Thanks for your hard work on this difficult problem, guys. For your log -- I saw Ken had commented: "Missed email triggers should have been sent, albeit late - you can confirm this in your Communication History. As noted, you can manually resend any you're not sure of in the usual ways, but we do not believe this to be generally necessary."
I can confirm that several triggers were missed and never sent until I sent them manually yesterday (12/29). Neither the original triggers were sent nor those that had the option "try to send a missed trigger up until the booking has arrived."
Still seeing on Airbnb:

So u like kenBot sending you videos not answers? I can google myself
Just a quick note to people upset that you don't get good "live call" service from OR - I prefer contacting them by email with issues - and they get back very quickly and concisely.
And in those emails I have had support pointing out things on my account that could make OR easier.
Very happy with the timeliness and accuracy of support.
I'm a software engineer and have been on the other side of outages like this. I want to commend you guys on your quick response, your diligence to make sure there weren't any data corruption issues, your ownership of the outage, and the transparency of this write up. Genuinely, I see few public postmortems that describe as thoroughly what went wrong and right from a technical perspective, and I think you should be commended for it. Few end users truly understand the fragility of large, complex software systems and how difficult it is to build true resiliency. I am sure you will take your learnings from this issue and incorporate them into an even more resilient system.
And kudos to all of those who responded to the outage. Getting a page about a primary db corruption during a work holiday does not sound like a good time to me.
Apartment 230 is available for the month of February. But when i search, it does not come up. When I search with no dates, and look by the map, none show up...
@Jonelle - I just checked and I can see them on Airbnb just fine. But you have a lot and I didn't check them all. Please write in to the Helpdesk with specific examples of properties that are not appearing on Airbnb so we can investigate.
I just double checked add none of my properties are no won AIRBNB...
I still have one apartment, summer sea 230, where I changed the calendar to show February available but that is not reflected in Airbnb or VRBO. I have set full sinc a few times but no change. Please help!
Thank you. We appreciate the effort to recover as well as the transparency, and time spent to write such detailed explanations.
Taking screen shots of the monthly calendars.
Thanks for sorting this out! I’m taking screen shots from now on every two or three days. Was the outage on Amazons side?

Thank you to the entire crew for getting this resolved as quickly as possible and so sorry vacations had to be disrupted!
I am thankful to the staff at OwnerRez, you all are the best! I'm so sorry this situation affected your team's holiday but am grateful for your dedication and support. I have full confidence in you and your handling of this situation and continue to champion and support your product and your team.
It's technology. Shit happens. The best you can do is the best you can do. We all know you wanted the system up as fast as we did. Thanks for being on top of it. Non-IT type people don't understand that even in redundant environments a database problem CAN replicate to redundant systems. Just look at RAID puncture and you'll see that all the failover, fault tolerant replications in the world won't save you from it as the bad block iteself replicates its state.
Thanks Chris! I’m finally online and showing up. Thank for looking into it and giving an update . Appreciate all the efforts . Happy holidays!
@Angela, @Bria, @Serish -- we've heard back from Airbnb. What happens is that they send 10 test availability checks throughout the day and will reactivate the listing once those availability checks return available.
I checked your listings just now and I am seeing them showing on Airbnb now.
Thanks for the transparency - it is appreciated! Please pass on our thanks to the team for coming forward from their holidays to fix this.
