Ever have one of those 'synergy' kind of days? DRA's network dates back to 1984, and is positively ancient compared to some networks. But even I was left speechless by today's outage. Here's an extract from DRA's trouble ticket diary. >But, I have been give a bit of background information on why they are having >so much trouble repairing the circuit. This circuit, a DS3 between LA and >San Diego, was owned by Western Union, which was bought out by MCI Local, >which is a part of MCI, which merged with World Comm. So, MCI/World Comm has >no idea what the circuit ID is of the circuit that is down. There is an MCI >tech on site in LA tracing cables to see where this circuit plugs into the >Western Union equipment so that they can trouble shoot it. Do other people have problems like this? Or does Murphy just likes me? -- Sean Donelan, Data Research Associates, Inc, St. Louis, MO Affiliation given for identification not representation
