Good times back then Joel! It was a UPS issue back there too if I remember, and 
the A and B feeds were all fed into the one UPS….


A tonne of people shifted within that week, for me it was the way that it was 
palmed off, as you say, others might have issues but they own those issues and 
rectify them…

In EQX defence Sy1 didn’t go dark… it was multiple (3-5) rows of rack that lost 
power in 2009.



We were one of the customers heavily impacted in 2009 but understood the reason 
why it happened and EQX fixed it all up.



Vocus Doody st different story and now melb



We pulled out of Doody after the drama we faced there.

[AusNOG] Equinix Outage

SY1 apparently experienced a full power outage back in July 2009, according to 
AusNOG Archives. Some reported full outages, some partial. Was not a DC fault
though, looks like a much larger grid issue where a fault at the Bayswater 
Power Station in the Hunter Valley (which affected generators in QLD and VIC) 
caused about 1000MW to be dropped from the grid, resulting in rolling blackouts 
across QLD, NSW, TAS, SA
and VIC.

Have 100% had A and B fail separately at SY1 but never both, thankfully!!!



Could have been part of the facility though so don’t quote me.



UK on the other hand, fail!

SY1 had A or B fail a few years back if my memory serves me correctly. But I 
was referring London and Manchester which both had total outages in recent 
years.
