SDSC Event Summary, 9/9/11, 9/8 Power Outage

On Thursday 9/8/11 at approximately 3:40pm San Diego Gas and Electric experienced a power outage that affected large portions of Southern California.  At that time the SDSC datacenter switched to UPS backup power and the generator was activated.  The UPS backup provided time to cleanly shut down core systems, and systems on generator power were unaffected.

Power was restored by SDG&E to SDSC shortly after 2:00am Friday and the DataCenter power was determined to be stable by 2:30am.  At that time we began restoring services and notifying users that systems can be powered on.

As of 1:30pm 9/9/2011 all core systems and networking were in production.
