and none in the other two facilities you operate in that same building had
any failures.


Quoting directly from their outage ticket updates :

CH2 does not have chillers, cooling arrangement is DX CRACs manufactured by
another company. CH3 has Smart chillers but are water cooled not air cooled
so not susceptible to cold ambient air temps as they are indoor chillers.

I’m more interested in how you lose six chillers all at once.

Let's say that hypothetically, a datacenter you're in had a cooling
failure and escalated to an average of 120 degrees before mitigations
started having an effect. What are normal QA procedures on your behalf?
What is the facility likely to be doing? What  should be expected in the
aftermath?
