Kaiser Server Room and Network Failure (Aug 28, 2012)
At 16:11, the Kaiser server room lost power due to a UPS failure. The phone and data networks for the Kaiser building, as well as some other services, were unavailable until 17:20. All services should be restored by now.
Sporadic Problems With DNS and Other Services (Aug 23-24, 2012)
DNS lookups were failing sporadically, leading to transient failures in many other services, including: authentication, e-mail, NFS, and software license servers. That problem has now been resolved. However, mail from the ECE mail server to Yahoo e-mail addresses will likely be blocked for the next two days.
MacLeod Server Room Failure (Aug 7, 2012)
A large number of services were down due to an air conditioner failure in ECE's MacLeod server room. The air conditioner has been repaired, and all services should be running again.
