Power outage affecting Cory machine room

April 8, 2013 by Lars Rohrbach

The power to the 165 Cory machine room is out, which affects a number of Instructional and research servers hosted there; a number of user-facing services are currently experiencing high latency or interruption.

Our staff electrician is on site and investigating.

UPDATE

[2013-04-08 12:51:51 | Lars Rohrbach]

Initial investigation has found the main breaker to the computer machine room has failed. This breaker services the PDU itself so all equipment is down in this room. We have a call out to Campus and investigating internal supplies to replace this fairly large service breaker. Restoration of power is unknown at this time.

We will keep you posted as Facilities makes progress on this fix.


UPDATE

[2013-04-08 14:10:50 | Lars Rohrbach]

Campus electricians have confirmed the electrical service interruption to the computer machine room in 165 Cory Hall. Computer equipment remains off. Facilities is actively working on repair or replacement of the breaker. We anticipate power will remain off for a minimum of another hour. We are putting in place contingency plans for temporary power if the immediate repairs fail.


UPDATE

[2013-04-08 14:47:41 | Lars Rohrbach]

Campus electricians have repaired the faulty breaker and it is now in service. We invite system administrators to turn on equipment after 3pm, today. We are currently slowly returning electrical services to the PDU and subsystems.
