Found on AWI that datacenter NAC.net is on fire...

[copymode]

Approximately 35 minutes ago, while under some routine maintenance NAC (Network Access Corporation) nac.net experienced a rather large electrical fire.

The fire has been contained by fire-fighters and as a safety precaution all power in the build has been turned off. At this stage we do not have an ETA for power resumption however we are working hard to get some answers on the situation.

EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION from NET ACCESS CORPORATION

We are still gathering information, but it appears there was a small fire in the 3rd floor DSR room, which resulted in a
loss of power. Our FM-200 fire suppressant worked as planned and immediately kicked in. The entire building has
been evacuated at this time and the fire department is onsite.
We are very fortunate that no one was inside the DSR room during this event. Net Access Corporation will continue to
update this page as more information is gathered.
UPDATE - 11:39am EDT: power to our core networking gear (gbr1.oct.nac.net and msfc1.oct.nac.net) has been
restored. Customers in our site A collocation should now have normal network reach ability to their servers. Our
technicians are working on restoring power to atm1.oct.nac.net and cust3.oct.nac.net now.
UPDATE - 11:33am EDT: Power to atm1.oct.nac.net and cust3.oct.nac.net has been restored.

What city is this in?

directfiesta · 05-28-2003, 09:28 AM

That's why some of my sites were down, as well as the hosting company.

It is back, but slower...

Thanks for the info.
