According to Level3, there was a MAJOR generator explosion that took out several floors of a building in LA. http://www.wdam.com/story/29849143/underground-explosion-at-los-angeles-high... They believe that this has potentially affected a large number of ISPs in the area. Outages are reported in other states including as far as Colorado.

Interesting. CenturyLink has told me that there was some sort of commerical power failure at one of their sites, and they didn't have any generators on-site. They were looking to restore power, and I believe they're back on commerical power, but we're still troubleshooting circuits that haven't come back up. It can't be a coincidence, but given that they say they have power back I'm not sure what really happened. -- John A.

Does anyone have any issues with their hosted services at internap Wilshire? One of our hosted webvpn was flapping intermittently reported by our help desk this AM PST. I am not sure if our netops have reached out to internap but just wanted to ping folks on the list regards, /virendra

My premonition was correct, Updated with information about Level 3 service disruption to data center customers, including Internap and Equinix (within the same building), at 811 West Wilshire Blvd and with a statement from CoreSite. regards, /virendra
