There has been a wide-spread power outage in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that is curently affecting hundreds of customers, including our colocation facility. The facility has backup/redundant power generators, which are operational. However, that power outage caused some issues with one of the ATS'(Automatic Transfer Switch) that provide the backup power to the facility. This is a wide spread power outage problem that is not only affecting the server colocation facility that our servers reside in, but undoubtedly other businesses, sub-stations, Telecom CO's, etc in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area that is affecting access to the server facility. Currently, there are about 500 customers in the DFW area that are completely without power. (Check the Oncor website at: http://www.oncor.com/community/outages/#) This most likely was caused by the heat related rolling blackouts that area has been experiencing recently. Right now the facility maintenance, vendors, and power company area ll working on the problems taht are affecting this entire area.
