To view the incident and its updates, please use Service Insight. 
New update on Incident INC0025932: Equinix IBX Site Staff reports that 
temperatures have stabilized with an average temperature of 120 F degrees. One 
chiller is now fully operational, and another chiller is online but operating 
at reduced capacity. Equinix IBX Critical Facility Engineers continue to work 
on restoring the required 4-out-of-6 chillers to return cooling back to normal 
operations. Portable chillers are currently enroute with an estimated arrival 
time of 21:00 Site Local Time. Upon arrival, IBX Critical Facility Engineers 
and our vendor partner will work diligently to get the portable chillers online 
as quickly as possible. We will send another update once the portable chillers 
are operational. 


If not already implemented, Equinix site staff highly recommends that customers 
power down non-essential loads within the data center and/or transfer those 
operations to backup sites to assist with efforts at lowering the temperature 
within the facility. 


The severe weather in the Chicago area, contributing to the initial failure, 
continues to hamper efforts at resolution, but our teams are working diligently 
to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. IBX Critical Facility Engineers 
continue to supply outside air to decrease the collocation area's temperature, 
and all fans have been deployed to support cooling the IBX.

The next update will be provided in approximately 30 minutes or earlier if 
available.
