[AusNOG] Brisbane?

[Shaun Deans :: Kadeo]

I think everyone needs to stand back and wait a second here....

Information Updated: 11/01/2011 1:30 pm
There are currently no unplanned outages identified in Brisbane (Brisbane Nth), East Brisbane (Brisbane Sth), South Brisbane (Brisbane Sth) and Port of Brisbane (Brisbane East and Bay Islands).

Most data centres I know are prepared to deal with loss of mains anyway.
IF the mains are lost generators will kick in and you will be notified by your NOC / Upstream....

Which areas are losing power?

If we have gear in Brisbane CBD should we start preparing to lose mains power?

Regards,

Daniel
