          Maybe the VMs don't exist anymore and they are trying to find a backup copy of them.

            At this point, that is my assumption.

              That would be an Epic Fail....

                It's already an epic fail. The amount that MS was claiming that data loss like this could not happen has led me to believe that it is their greatest fear.

                    Not that we have heard, but they've been having lots of issues recently.

                          Because they need their phone systems to crash too... just pile it on.

                            I doubt that they moved to Skype for Business yet. Let me tell you, though, I'm putting my foot down about us moving to that now. There was talk of it, and that's coming to a halt. Not letting that happen, ever.

                              @scottalanmiller Read here I've provided a Service Status for Skype for Business 2016 directly from MS.

                                @scottalanmiller If you are only using it for internal messaging, why not spin up your own Jabber server on ASO or DO?

                                  We have perfectly good systems now. But MS has been pushing us to go to Skype for Business and says that they will pay for everything. Free is not always as good as it seems. That's where MS services are now... not good enough to even be using for free.

                                          I was referring to this quote from you:

                                          We got one for free, I'm not impressed with it at all. I'm surprised that they decided to give something away that would not be impressive. So as a Lenovo owner I'm like "even for free, we aren't happy". Nothing is less impressive than only being marginally useful for free.
