Yes, there was a power outage. Confirmed with Hurricane Electric. All
our equipment was offline for 5 minutes or so. Discussed over on
outages@outages.org. This is the second such data center wide power
outage in 2 months.

I'm unimpressed with their lack of transparency on these issues. It
seems not even their own employees know the causes or their remedial
actions. The impression you get is that it's a pretty wild and crazy
over at Hurricane Electric without real disaster recovery plans or
procedures.

Cheers,

Stef
