Thanks for the message, and apologies for the late reply. Your email ended up

Hey all,

is it just more or are the MRT files missing from https://data.ris.ripe.net/ for the past 48 hours across multiple collectors (haven't checked them all) ?

E.g. https://data.ris.ripe.net/rrc00/2026.06/ and https://data.ris.ripe.net/rrc03/2026.06/, nothing since the 18th?

The issue affected all BGP update files. We applied a mitigation on Saturday.
RIS update file production, including the backfill of affected data, recovered
on Saturday 20 June at around 15:35 UTC.

The root cause was a process that had become stuck. We did not detect this due
to a gap in our monitoring. This specific alert for update files being updated
stopped working after a recent migration, and we have now fixed it.

We are also taking a broader look at RIS monitoring. The monitoring for RIS is
changing from a legacy monitoring setup (icinga) to victoriametrics. This
includes adding metrics inside the RIS pipelines. We expect this to help us
detect issues before they have downstream effects and respond more quickly in
the future.

An end to end check, checking if the latest files are up to date, is definitely
one of the a scenario we will cover.

Kind regards,

Ties de Kock

Cheers,
James.
