Will that also stop those pesky cosmic rays from causing RAM bit flips?
Hello tier 5 data centres :)

Absolutely.  Hard to imagine a datacentre of any repute that relies on  
"Commercial Power".  If Optus doesn't actually have their own gen sets  
at Elizabeth St then you'd have to question their commitment to their  
network and their customers.

If it's the same outgage that has just been resolved, then I thought  
it was power related. The message I got was:

"Optus advised that Commercial Power failure in  Building in  
Elizabeth St Sydney and they are heading to site with a Generator to  
supply power for transmission equipment."

Maybe these recent power issues will cause POP/DC providers to  
consider their own redundancies and maybe check they work too. We  
can but hope...

Tony.

Apparently Optus has a Major Fibre Cut between Elizabeth St
Sydney CBD
and their Roseberry Exchange.



Affecting half of their CBD ATM network.
