Power Maintenance – Sunday 6th Dec 2009
Coreix :: Power Maintenance – Sunday 6th Dec 2009
Location: STA.LON2
---------------------
The facility engineering team will be conducting power maintenance beginning at 02:00 GMT lasting until 06:00 on Sunday 6th Dec 2009.
Scope of work: Functional test of the new equipment installed during the maintenance on the 4th Dec 2009.
The commercial supply will be disconnected in a controlled manner by power engineers. This work will ensure the correct operation of the breakers in the Low Voltage equipment in switching the power source on to the Generators. A full risk assessment has been carried out and as an additional precaution; manufacturers will be onsite along with our data-centre engineers.
Outage: We do not anticipate any downtime during this testing.
Thank you for your understanding as we continue to improve our services.

STATUS UPDATE - 6th Dec 2009 04:19
The above mentioned maintenance activity planned for 6th Dec 2009- 0200-0600 hrs GMT has now been postponed until further notice.
During our pre-change checks we identified a fault which could lead to a degraded service on the cooling system and further investigation with the relevant engineering staff established that given a certain sequence of events full cooling to the data halls during the maintenance could be affected.
After a full risk assessment it was agreed that the increased risk was unacceptable and led to the decision that the change should not go ahead.
We apologise for cancellation of this change and will attempt to rearrange it as soon as possible when the risk profile can be reduced to an acceptable level and we will endeavour to give as much notice as possible for the future scheduling of this change.
