One way to get the fire dept to treat the building with white gloves would be to get that building to house the fire department's communication systems... they'd think twice about rampaging in there with their axes and what not :-) :-)
What about if the building houses components necessary for the fire department's internet connection? ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22661224 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 13:17:01 EDT Re: 6 firetrucks at 151 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22659558 jfmezei : What a fire department uses at a building will depend on whether the building has special deal with the fire department.

#1 job is to save lives
#2 job is to prevent the fire from spreading to other buildings
#3 job is to prevent building from collapsing

saving some computers is at the very low end of their normal priorities.

Building code still requires water sprinklers even if you have sophisticated fire suppression systems. The building's job is to bring fire under control before fire department gets there or before water sprinklers are triggered automatically.

For a building like 151, I would hope the building owners would have made arrangements with the fire department so that the later would be informed of the nature of thebuilding, presence of large amounts of lead acid batteries, and diesel tanks/generators, lots of power conduits etc. Throwing water at large bank of overheated batteries is extremely dangerous (causes an epxlosion because water causes the batterioes to short, especially salt water (for submarines especially).

And if they have their own internal fire fighting capability (CO2 etc), I would hope that the building would trigger it before allowing firemen in there with axes and foam extinguishers, unless the fire is already contrlolled/limited to a small place and not spreading.

So, why bother sending all of the pumpers anyway?

In a datacentre, at what point do they start actually using water to suppress a fire? As water would surely damage plenty of equipment, especially as all of the serious electrical stuff is on the roof or top level (bad planning?).

Do they still use halon based oxygen gas depletors (once the place is fully evacuated) ???
Toronto fire department like all fire departments have very standardized protocols. What YYZ fire did last night was exactly what I expect of fire department in that kind of situation. Kill the power and deal with any hazards that might be dangerous to people. The only reason they care what is in building is so they know what is proper tools to deal with the hazard at hand.

As for using water. Probably not. Most likely they would have used a foam based solution. Straight water on Battery acid is not a good thing. :(

151 front is not the newest in data centers. The newer data centers do have fm-200 as well as other suppression systems in place. At the end of day though nothing makes up for good maintenance and techs doing there job 100% correctly.

They do not care what's in the building. Thats a standard response.

But yes, they are supposed to (if they value their customers and ability to use their insurance policy) have a method of extinguishing the fire that doesn't involve ruining all the equipment, with water coming into play if that fails out.

Also keep in mind though some fire departments have a foaming agent that can be used in electrical fires that is non damaging as well....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22658246 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 19:35:55 EDT Re: 6 firetrucks at 151 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22658245 HeadSpinning :

Life safety is primary, property protection is secondary. If they need to use water to preserve life, they will.

Halon is no longer used in new installations. FM-200 seems to be the fire suppression gas of choice these days. As a plus, it is non-fatal to anyone caught in the room when the system discharges.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22658245 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 19:35:54 EDT Re: 6 firetrucks at 151 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22658054 anon : So, why bother sending all of the pumpers anyway?

It's sounding like there wasn't any extensive damage to any equipment, so hopefully we'll see TekSavvy back up and running shortly.

Early morning, mostly off-topic rambling: about ten years ago, I worked for a small telecom company in West Virginia. Their data center was, for whatever reason, located below ground level. Naturally, that "once in a hundred years" event came... A water main burst and flooded much of downtown Charleston, including the data center.

I know they had moved a bunch of it out of there, but when that big a chunk of your network goes offline, I doubt they could get things up and running even in an emergency capacity without physically getting into the facility and rewiring stuff.

EDIT: If this is to be a very long-term multi-day outage, perhaps TekSavvy can hook us up with emergency logins from another ISP? Although I guess none of the others that aren't hosted at 151 like eBox have enough AHSSPI capacity.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22656004 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 02:56:17 EDT Re: 6 firetrucks at 151 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655997 MikeGeiger : I'm pushing to twitter more than here: »search.twitter.com/search?q=%23151fire

What's the deal with the fire?

So I was testing at about 3.3mbit/s down and 330kbit/s up when tethered on my laptop.

Tethered to the desktop, the case and location is causing a bit more interference, I'm only testing at 1.2mbit/s down (and same up as before).

If only the iPhone 3GS also supported HSUPA then we'd get some nice upstream speeds too.

Either way, other than the extremely low bandwidth per month, it's pretty sweet for tethering.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655990 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 02:48:58 EDT Re: 6 firetrucks at 151 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655989 BJC :

Right now I'm tethered through my iPhone. Which, to get off-topic, is about the same speed as a 4 meg DSL line with 130ms of latency. It's pretty sweet.
