Experiencing the same on a Prod server. Droplet shows “on” but can’t get to it. Our app is down!

Hi there,

It looks like that there was indeed some scheduled maintenance:

This should already be completed, are you still seeing the message?

Heya,

It seems the Droplet you have is on a Hypervisor which is undergoing some work thus being under maintannance. Don’t worry it’s a temporary thing and it should be cleared soon.
