Our data center provider has provided this update: PHX-01 is experiencing elevated white space temperatures caused by multiple utility bump events attributable to overnight storms in the area. We have on-site vendors working rapidly to resolve the situation and restore adequate cooling. Technicians have activated mitigation efforts to reduce rising space temperatures. Thus far we have restored Chiller D into operation as of 7:45 am local time. Additional remediation measures include the following action items (anticipated commencement local time; anticipated completion local time): -Chiller C restoration (targeted 12:30 pm) -Temporary on floor cooling and heat removal equipment added (approximately 10:00 am) -Additional temporary chiller and temporary backup generator added (targeted approximately 4:00 pm) Following the restoration of Chiller D, we have seen significant temperature reductions and expect that reduction to continue over the next 60 minutes.
