Hi All, Not sure if anyone was aware but we saw a Chiller failure (seems to be regarding a mechanical UPS from what I've seen on the Equinix emails) in LD9/PowerGate 2 (the long, newer building). We saw temperatures on inlet as high as 41 degrees C on a number of servers for a few hours.

The interesting thing is that we saw this notification from Microsoft regarding Azure; Starting at approximately 14:00 UTC on 14 Sep 2020, a single Zone in UK South has experienced a cooling failure and Storage, Networking and Virtual Compute resources have been shut down as part of our automated processes to preserve the equipment and prevent damage. While we didn't get to the point of having to shut anything down, we were able to shift customers off to our other DC facility without any issues. So if you have stuff in LD9 like us, and UK South, you might want to consider UK West (Cardiff) or EU North (Ireland) as you might wind up with your compute in the same location! I know there are three zones in UKS but we're reviewing our use of it now. Regards, [cid:image002.png@01D68B5E.E0AB55C0] Alex Threlfall Infrastructure Hardware Consultant Anana Ltd.
