Customer intervention required: No
Reference number: 191818

Summary:

Emergency maintenance on one of the two emergency power generators.

Details:

During the emergency power test this morning one of two emergency generators of BIT-2A failed. This generator needs to be repaired by the supplier. During the repair, a temporary generator will be placed. While the faulty generator is being swapped out, both generators will be unavailable for BIT-2A for a short period of time.

In the unlikely event that power delivery from the grid fails during the replacement, the engineers on site will manually switch to the available power generator when this is possible is a safe manner. This power generator has enough capacity to fully supply BIT-2A with power. Should this exceptional occurrence occur, then there could be a brief increase in temperature, the devices in the datacenter will be fed with power by the available UPS sets.
