Network problems at GNAX datacenter

[bdominick]

Apparently, it was a battery backup unit that went bad is what I last heard.

How does a battery backup problem cause an outage? That has to be a secondary problem.

I am not sure that it is even a GNAX problem.

Here's what GNAX says about their power backup system:

multiple power generators on a redundant grid with two separate feeds into the building.

How on earth does that kind of system lose power? A Navy SEAL team should have trouble taking that out! So what if a backup battery goes bad -- they're supposed to have redundand AC feeds into the building and multiple generators...
