Subject: "Hypothetical" Datacenter Overheating

Let's say that hypothetically, a datacenter you're in had a cooling failure and escalated to an average of 120 degrees before mitigations started having an effect. What are normal QA procedures on your behalf? What is the facility likely to be doing? What  should be expected in the aftermath?
