Apparently a major power outage (even though Equinix is making the claim that no one is affected) Our equipment on the 8th floor has been powerless for several hours.

We are being told there was a commercial power outage due to weather and the UPS did not take the load. However, commercial power has been restored and they are continuing to work on the UPS to determine the issue. More details would be appreciated.

As a customer with working equipment there, the Equinix DA3 power is up; only their chillers are being "manually" controlled. If there are power issues for other occupants in the Infomart building, it's not the DA3 or any Equinix power, but that of Infomart facility itself. Alan S.

Equinix told us that our services were possibly impacted at 6:14 AM due to power issues, maybe they are not fully aware of the scope of the problem? On Feb 3, 2014, at 11:48 AM, Alex Rubenstein <alex@corp.nac.net> wrote:

We have equipment in the 9th floor building MMR at 165 Halsey, Newark. We didn't see any power loss ourselves. But... We have interfloor fiber connections to several customers in Equinix's 8th floor facility. At 06:08 AM EST these went down, indicating multiple 8th floor locations losing power. Simultaneously, Cogent experienced a problem at 165 Halsey with "isolated equipment". We have a bgp session with a Cogent router on the 9th floor and, around 06:08, the number of prefixes they were announcing to us dropped from over 400K to 300-some. Possibly Cogent's path out of the building depends on something within Equinix. The customers we have on the 8th floor got their power restored around 08:55. I'm not sure what time Cogent returned to normal, but it was some time ago.

FWIW, we've not noticed any power interruptions on the 7th floor in the Level 3 expanded colo space. We have some waves via Zayo which have remained solid as well. I assume they terminate in ZColo space somewhere in the building.
