Isn't this like the 2nd or 3rd event at Fisher of late?
Any answers Jonathan? Has Fisher owned up to the cause yet? I did not
hear of any local grid issues (we're certainly NOT broiling up here
like the rest of the country.)
The *rumor* I heard was some sort of bypass switch failure. Genset(s)
running, but no juice being delivered... then the UPS' ran dry.
Outage lasted 45-90-some minutes depending on where in the facility
your gear was.
The above is all hearsay though, from some INAP customers I ran into yesterday.
