On the comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc newsgroup, I saw a post that contained this: (This was quoted in another message, and the sender information was not quoted, so I do not know who the source is.) > A thunderstorm knocked out power to the Rochester site Friday about noon > CST. Power was out for an hour, and it was expected to take several > hours just to get all the local servers back online, much less public > web servers. (They sent everyone home for the rest of the day, > something that cost roughly a quarter million dollars by my > back-of-the-envelope estimate, so you can imagine how serious this > problem was.) They may still be having some problems as a result of > that outage -- any time you lose power you lose a certain % of disk > drives, and there are lots of disk drives at the Rochester site. > > It's unfortunate that the problem occurred just before a holiday weekend > like this, since a lot of the people who knew how to take care of things > were off. Barring a serious problem, I would anticipate that everything > will be up and running normally by Tuesday afternoon. -----Original Message----- From: owner-midrange-l@midrange.com [mailto:owner-midrange-l@midrange.com]On Behalf Of David Keck Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2000 11:12 AM To: Midrange-L Subject: AS/400 Online Resources The Info Center and Online Library at www.as400.ibm.com have been down all weekend, and as of 9/5/2000 9:07 EST they are still down.
