UPS Failure

Hello everyone,

Some bad news today. It seems that one of the two uninterruptible power supply units has been acting up and subsequently failed this morning on 2018-12-15 11:29:22 (EST).

Typically things would keep on chugging along on the one remaining and the systems would remain functional for the most part, this UPS unit carried the load of one of the main switches as well as the modem necessary to maintain access externally and subsequently caused 5 hrs and 9 mins of downtime across all services.

This comes as a decent disappointment as the unit in question is relatively new.

Currently the unit is functional and will be monitored however it will most likely need to be replaced.

As usual, if you wish to assist in the equipment replacement, you can find our donation like on the homepage on the left to donate via PayPal or reach out to me for other methods of contribution to be arranged.

Lastly, I will apologize for this unforeseen and ill timed (weekend) incident and hope the inconvenience caused was not too substantial.
