Hi All,

Yesterday (05.07.2023) databricks experienced a near total outage in the West and North Europe regions. 

It took the full working day, but they posted an update in the late afternoonstating that a workaround has been put in place and service is back to 100%.

Unfortunatley there are now some issues. My clusters and notebooks are accessible again, and they start. But a lot of python libs are failing to install now due to "user is not the owner of the resource" - although I am.

Additional issues are being seen, such as all my drivers are messed up and not installed properly anymore. I've tried a bunch of things, for example:

1. Reconfigure dpkg Database
2. Force-Install the Software
3. Remove Bad Software Package
4. Clean Out Unused Software Packages
5. Remove Post Files

Basically, service is back but everything is messed up with my libs and drivers on every cluster. (It was all fine before the outage).

I am going to try anf clone the cluster, run a script to install the libs on the new cluster and see if it works, and if it works, do it for the other clusters. 

I want to ask if anyone else is having this issue, and if theres a better way of resolving this. I also don't want to have to do this whenever an outage happens. 

The outage only affected Databricks in Azure.
