ColoServe Unaffected by PG&E Power Outage
July 24, 2007 - ServePath and ColoServe customers were not affected by the power issues from PG&E on July 24th in downtown San Francisco, due to properly working backup power systems. Systems indicators at ColoServe show that the utility power had multiple power spikes that day during the timeframe of PG&E’s incident. Our system, which was built by MCI/WorldCom and has generators and cooling maintained by Verizon, worked properly. This was also confirmed by Verizon.
ServePath/ColoServe’s Liebert UPS backup battery systems also worked properly and all customers who were powered by these systems saw no down time. The power was transferred successfully to a back up generator for approximately one hour until the system automatically detected that PG&E power had been restored for over 30 minutes. The transfer back to utility power proceeded without incident.
