Massive power fluctuations Tuesday 21st February 2023 11:46


Automated incident reporting

We have detected massive power fluctuations at one of two racks, each lasting between two and six minutes. The impairment of the power voltage is between 13-30%. Measures have already been taken and less critical infrastructure parts have been shut down to avoid an overvoltage.

Further observations are being made.

After 24 hours of monitoring, we did not notice any other areas of influence. Incident now closed.

We were able to restart the failed servers without any problems.

According to information from the data centre, it was due to the mains supply, the connection of the UPS took too long - which resulted in the shutdown of some systems. Within seconds, the power flow was back to normal.

We will observe the further course of events for another 24 hours.
