Intermittent Matrix Federation Issues

What?

Outgoing Matrix federation was intermittently nonfunctional. Some messages to remote servers may have been delayed or failed to send. Messages received from remote servers were not impacted.

When?

Between 7:14 AM CDT and 3:01 PM CDT on Monday, June 14th.

Why?

A Matrix Synapse worker process failed to start properly after bringing the service back online. It remained in a degraded state until it was manually restarted.
