Re: Trojan Hunter : forum down; strange update
said by dannyboy 950  :My hat is off to them. That they are restoreing service as quick as they are is a near miracle or great disaster planning on their part. Quite the opposite. Horrible design and planning of a mission critical data center, if I ever heard it. All eggs in one basket. To have a substation transformer located in a room without 3 or 4 hour fire-rated walls (typically made of reinforced masonry) was a big mistake, and an easily avoidable risk. The result was a complete outage of the data center, a financial loss, and a loss of reputation that you can't even put a price on. In comparison, the masonry walls would have been cheap. |

Mannnn I am glad I was not on that crew what a mad house it must have been.
I mean several years ago a client had a forklift crash thru a wall and take out a little equipment. I know what a mess that was but it was not near what those people faced.
