Third Unplanned Power Outage to 165 Cory

by

Report from Scott McNally:

“Power was just lost again at 3:40pm Wednesday, 4/10/13. We will have to triage the number of machines we allow on in this room once we restore power. Then we still have a power shutdown on Friday to replace the faulty breaker.”

Mailed earlier today to the Cory Sysadmins maillist:

“Campus is planning a shutdown of Electrical Services to Computer Machine Room 165 and the East Side 1st floor of Cory Hall on Friday, 4/12/2013, between the hours of 9am-Noon to replace the faulty breaker. We are currently operating critical equipment only in room 165. In fact we insist no additional equipment be turned back on at this time until after the repairs on Friday can be made. If you are able to shut down equipment that may not be needed between now and Friday, we ask that you do so.”

Due to a Power Distribution Unit or the UPS failure in 165 Cory Machine Room, there is limited to some servers located on the east side of that room.

The Building Manager has a call in to campus to fix the PDU and we’re in a holding pattern until then. Building and technical staff are working to restore everything as soon as possible.

When there is a update, it will be posted here on IRIS NEWS.
