DNSimple outage workaround
  1. Find an ip address of site you want to access ( including subdomain as each subdomain can point to different ip) using cached DNS records -> https://www.whatsmydns.net

Example https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/docs.semaphoreapp.com 2. Put the following in your /etc/hosts IP_ADDRESS WEBSITE_WITH_SUBDOMAIN

Example: 50.31.209.254 docs.semaphoreapp.com 3. Access website using normal address in browser. Does not require restart unless you are on windows.
