I saw my sliechost box go down for about 10 minutes. I'm really surprised that they haven't sent me an email yet, they're usually RIGHT on top of that...

Anybody have any word on what happened?



You posted JUST too soon... 10 minutes ago I received:

------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello,

We have experienced an interruption in power to a portion of our Dallas-Fort Worth data center facility. Power has been restored and our DC engineers are working on devices that need to be manually brought back online as quickly as possible. Further updates will be made as soon as new information is made available. Please monitor our MyRackspace customer portal as this is the quickest way we can get updates out to you.

Sincerely,

Rackspace


That actually sounds pretty scary. What sort of incoming fault trips (what sounds like) DC breakers?


If I recall, they were doing maintenance to their chillers this week. Hmmm....
