Just a heads up to anyone on list that PG&E has just sustained a large outage in San Francisco that has caused a few hiccups (both network, electrical, infrastructural, etc.) around the city.
I've confirmed that both customers in 365 Main and parts of telecom 1 have both sustained brief blackouts. No word yet form 200 Paul.
Anyone in the area that could use a hand with anything, I'll probably be wrapping up fixes for my stuff soon, and would be glad to help however I can.
I have a question: does anyone seriously accept "oh, power trouble" as a reason your servers went offline? Where's the generators? UPS? Testing said combination of UPS and generators? What if it was important? I honestly find it hard to believe anyone runs a facility like that and people actually *pay* for it. If you do accept this is a good reason for failure, why? ~Seth
