Not pretty outcome, no matter how much redundancy you have.I believe the Uptime Institute has some statistics showing EPO problems are one of the top five reasons for critical facility outages.
i've seen poorly trained, inexperienced electricians hit EPOs for totally bogus reasons. putting a big red EPO button in front of them is like dangling a shiney object in front of some people i know. once at GE R&D, we had an electrician announce that "the room was running on emergency power", so he had to turn the emergency power off. richard -- Richard Welty rwelty () averillpark net Averill Park Networking 518-573-7592 Unix, Linux, IP Network Engineering, Security
