Hi!
If I understood correctly, Wikipedia did have an UPS at their data center. But the problem cut also that off.
Regards,
Heikki

Many data centers do not allow customers to install their own UPS inside the rack. I am not sure if this is the case with Wikipedia, but it is definitely the case at the data center we are hosted in. I would love to shove one in after reading the horror stories at Livejournal and now Wikipedia.
I see. Do the data centers offer their own UPS ( as opposed to the customer setting up one for themselves ), or do they simple ban the use of UPSs outright?
Either way, if you *need* a UPS, you can't hide behind the excuse "oh yeah but XYZ wouldn't let me". You find a way to make it happen ... or if you can't you at least don't start blaming your software for what is obviously a hardware issue.
