We've been told by our field tech in LA that One Wilshire had lost power for a bit, but it is now restored. I don't know the duration of the outage, but our equipment there is on DC and did not go down. -Rob -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu] On Behalf Of Ashe Canvar Sent: Monday, September 12, 2005 5:08 PM To: nanog@merit.edu Subject: Re: LA power outage?

AM radio news is reporting a "wrong cable cut" by the department of water and power folks... they're saying "no ties to terrorism"...

So - who in LA is going to be telling Santa they want a new data-center sized diesel UPS genset for Christmas? ;)
OneWilshire did lose power but their generators did their job just fine. Getting up to any data center space there was impossible on the other hand. They have enough current to run the entire building, just not the elevators, the lights in the stairwells, or the key-card locks on the data center doors (or so management told the bunch of us who were waiting outside). Still, none of our circuits lost power, which is better off than half of L.A. was.

More like, "which manager is telling Santa they want a new, clue-imbued employee for Christmas?" I'm not too close to the story and I don't live in Los Angeles (I live and work 55-65 miles northeast of downtown), but it seems to me that the problem could have been avoided with a little more caution on the part of the person who cut the wires. -- Steve Sobol, Professional Geek 888-480-4638 PGP: 0xE3AE35ED Company website: http://JustThe.net/ Personal blog, resume, portfolio: http://SteveSobol.com/ E: sjsobol@JustThe.net Snail: 22674 Motnocab Road, Apple Valley, CA 92307
