The Soul data centre and core network was unaffected (UPS and EPG did their job).  There were some carrier services at Kent Street and at GPT which did not handle things well (out of Soul's control and I won't name the carrier).

Hey all,

Would some people like to report on the performance of any Sydney City DC's that were effected during the outage in Sydney yesterday?

I can think of some that might have been effected by the outage.

Soul in Kent St
PowerTel in Clarence St
Pacnet in Bond St
Key Telstra exchanges like Pitt St, Kent St?

I know BrennanIT's DC went offline due to "Diesel generator pump failures"

As far as I know Globalswitch, MCI/Verizon, Optus were not effected on Pyrmont - or they did very well.

It would be interesting to know what DC's were and weren't affected, and how they coped.

Maybe this is a good up-sell time for people who operate colo in the major DC's.
