Scheduled
The ITS Data Centre (DCB) will be operating on emergency power Saturday April 6th, 2019 from 6:00am to 10:00pm during a scheduled F&S building electrical maintenance event which requires a complete shutdown of the building electrical supply for 16 hours. Emergency power will be supplied to the data centre by a permanently-installed diesel generator and 48 hours (at current IT and HVAC loads) of on-site diesel fuel supply, which will be replenished daily should the need arise.

During the maintenance window, there will be no base-building power or cooling supply available. While extremely unlikely, a failure of either the generator or the primary cooling plant during the maintenance period could, in the worst case, force a complete shutdown of the data centre facility. DCB has been designed, built and maintained to operate otherwise normally and indefinitely under these conditions, without impact to any services.
