Power Outage This morning at 10:20am,
Calgary suffered a major power outage affecting nearly 70,000 people. Unfortunately, we were one of the 70,000 people affected. While we have battery backup in place, the outage lasted more than 2 hours and our battery can only last 45 minutes.
Of course no power outage goes perfect when we get power again, and a hard drive decided to die when power was restored. While we can run with a hard drive down, a server cannot boot up when it's missing a drive.
All is good now. Sorry for the interruption.
