One developer said, “It ’s not possible to open all the files on ECS. All of a sudden, all the files will not be opened. After a while, there is a wave of disconnection, and you ca n’t log in to the web console.”

Regarding the cause of the accident, some people speculated that the disk of Huawei Cloud should be down first, because ECS only went offline after a long time, mostly because of the storage service, and then was forced to shut down.
