Subject: Re: The Planet, DOWN and Problems today, anyone else?


My company was down until about 11am. 3 of our servers (incl. DNS)
didn't reboot properly and if I hadn't called them about the ticket we'd
put in at 9:30, we'd still be down. I've been fielding calls all morning
from hosting clients. The problem is at their datacenter on 35 across
from the AA Center.

----- From their ticket center ----------------------------------

Location: DLLSTX2

Severity: Level 5

Description: At 4:09AM CST, a power failure occurred in a redundant pair
of Powerware UPS units feeding power to section B of the DLLSTX2
datacenter. The power failure was caused by a faulty fuse in UPS unit
B-1. As the load transferred to UPS unit B-2, the spike in the load
created an overloaded breaker and UPS B2 also lost power. This resulted
in a power outage to the main power distribution unit feeding section B
of the datacenter floor. Emergency teams were notified and the power was
restored within 20 minutes. The power continued to cycle until 6:45AM
due to the faulty fuse and the inability of the redundant UPS units to
remain in bypass mode. Customers may have noticed several power cycles
during this time period. Powerware, JT Packard, and electricians found
the problem and replaced the faulty hardware and fuses. At 6:45AM, all
electrical service was restored to normal and the NOC team began to
bring all servers back online. The technical staff is currently placing
a console on all servers to verify server restarts. Customers with
operating systems that require a file check may have experienced
extended downtime during the file check. Powerware and JT Packard will
continue to monitor the UPS systems for the next 24 to 48 hours. The
Planet does not anticipate any further outages.

Brilliant.
