151 Front St Toronto (Torix)

Does anyone know whats up with them ? All my peers are down now and the host for the mailing list is still off the air.

TORIX is off the net
traces to peer1 routers/hosts at 151 front die before reaching toronto
the rumor mill has it that 151 front's generator system failed utterly...

on another note, here's a fascinating graph from NYIIX at 25 Broadway (downtown NYC, running fine on generator power)

Yikes, I just heard that the power is out at 151 Front St because they are having generator problem.

Just called my colo provider (GT/360) and they said the air conditioners are still not fully functional. The temp is still rising for my equipment, but its not rising nearly as fast as before.

Temperature readings:
         chassis inlet measured at 38C/100F
         chassis outlet 1 measured at 41C/105F
         chassis outlet 2 measured at 46C/114F
         chassis outlet 3 measured at 52C/125F :Temperature in Warning range!

That's a shame to owner/Bell. Generators should have been tested with
the full load on a periodic basis.

The building is run / managed by RACO. Bell along with pretty well every carrier in Canada are tenants of the building. Its a VERY large carrier POI.

I spoke with GT at 3:30 Eastern and they still were waiting for some contractors to show up to fix the air conditioners. Street power was supposedly restored around ~ 1am but still no cooling :frowning:

True. I've been there myself a few times. I think most circuits are
owned by Bell (operated or rented).

Yes, that's about the time I was waken up by the lights coming on. :wink:

The building air conditioning has been fixed as of 5min ago (5:35 eastern). The temp has already dropped 3 degrees C on my router intake ports. Still no word on why their building generators failed nor what actually took out the cooling system.
