Vancouver Datacenter Issues

Posted on July 14th, 2008

Data Center

At approximately 2:00 PM PST the data center in Vancouver with the Diddy, Apollo and Artemis server were down. The issue was for the entire data center and their staff were on site and working on a resolution immediately. Servers were back online at approximately 6:21 PM PST. We will update this post once more details of the issue are conveyed to us.

This is the email I got from the Data Center as to why…

As you may already know, there has been a major power outage in downtown Vancouver. At about 10:00AM this morning, a major transformer caught fire and exploded in an underground service area. A number of buildings, as well as traffic lights, are without power in the downtown area. Currently, sources are saying the power will be restored by 3:00PM. However, rumours indicate that this is not likely.

Serenity is currently operational. Temperature is also becoming a concern.

The servers went offline do to temperature issues. The power now being restored to the building means the servers are now back online as the AC is now working fully.

Questions, comments or concerns?
