KAMAR Hosting Outage - Wednesday 4th March
Information regarding outage affecting hosting and web services for Auckland hosted schools
Posted on Wednesday 4 March, 2026
KAMAR experienced an outage to its web services which affected it's Auckland DC connection. This outage impacted schools hosted in Auckland, access to KAMAR web site, 2FA authentication and school.kiwi services.
The primary cause was due to the network connection between our primary router and core network switch doing down. Additionally, the HA monitor failed to initiate a fall-over to our secondary router, requiring manual intervention. A support ticket with our router support has been raised to investigate further.
The outage was resolved at 7:35am
