I misconfigured a new service and used the host as the username. I suspect there must be a ban period for failed attempts to stop brute force attacks. I locked my IP out as it started working again after some time for existing services, and then failed with the same error when I tried to run the new service again.

EDIT: The team answered the email anyway and confirmed. In case anyone else finds this and needs to know, your IP will be blocked for 30 mins after two failed attempts to login to a database. You can unban your IP using the CLI (neat!)
