Networks Alert: 10th December 2016

Acurix Networks has been advised that there is building power outages occurring on our main POP site.  This will affect services in the CBD and South Perth.

The details are:

Dear Client,

Vocus Data Centres wish to advise of maintenance to be conducted at our Basement, 45 St Georges Tce, Perth facility.

The following maintenance is not anticipated to have any effect on the normal operation of the facility.
Please note that this is a hazard notification only and no action is required.

Start Date: Friday 9th December 2016 at 23:00 (UTC)
End Date: Sunday 11th December 2016 at 15:00 (UTC)

The following window is largely a re-attempt of works, originally scheduled on 18-19 November under CHG-0143404.

The VDC-PER08 datacentre will be migrated to new building electrical infrastructure, as part of a major building electrical upgrade.
Building schedule involves interrupting the utility supply to the Datacentre for up to 8 hours within the window 0000 - 0800 GMT (8am-4pm AWST), on Saturday 10th December.
This will have the following impact to customer racks :-
- UPS feeds will continue as normal, no impact expected.
- Customers with Non-Essential Feeds: Non-Essential feeds will lose power for the duration of works.

While no impact is expected during the remainder of the window, electricians will be working on the building electrical infrastructure throughout Saturday and Sunday, which may see further brief interruptions to utility supply.
The datacentre Generator will remain available throughout the works.

Various portions of the building may be powered down throughout the weekend, as works progress. This may impact normal access to VDC-PER08.
While access will remain available throughout the works, there will be periods where escort through the building will be necessary for safety reasons.
We recommend rescheduling any planned works which fall during this period. If access is needed, please call 1300 855 845 ahead of time to confirm if Vocus escort will be necessary, and allow extra time for access.

Please contact Vocus Data Centres should you have any questions, comments or concerns.
