Master Ticket NIL3901265

Words from our Q Rep:

We do have a master ticket opened NIL3901265. This is Network wide and currently being worked on, unfortunately at this point we do not have an ETA. Do you have access to Q-control? An individual ticket can be opened thru Q-control.

Thanks,

Steve (Oregon)

I don’t have all the details—BUT Qwest has a major outage that is affecting LD calls in North Carolina and maybe more..

Any details would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim

I haven't heard the final reason(s) on why. I do know a Qwest engineer called one of my end users stating they had a 'couple T1's throwing 1000's of errors' and they removed those from service and things started working. Nothing official, yet. Jim McBurnett wroteth on 9/4/2009 1:15 PM:

I am real curious what the post mortem is on this outage..

Anyone get the real skinny on it?

Unicast PM’s welcome….

I've yet to see any of the major telco providers in the United States actively monitor counters on any of their equipment (regardless of capacity). The modus operandi is "monitor nothing and wait until customers complain". I imagine Qwest operates similarly. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.

Interesting.. If those were SS7 links in the right place, I could see some issues there.. BUT you think they would have error reporting on that...

This is sounding more and more interesting...

Thanks Steve... Jim
