Truck crash takes Lost Remote offline (seriously)
Don Day November 12th, 2007
No, it wasn’t the crush of traffic to Safran’s final address (above) that took Lost Remote and hundreds of other sites offline. Instead, a truck hit a transformer and caused a power bump at a Dallas RackSpace datacenter. Generators kicked in, but problems ensued - since they didn’t have enough juice to keep the datacenter properly cooled. The RackSpace outage sent dominoes crashing into Laughing Squid, which hosts LR and hundreds of other sites.
