Re: Westin Seattle Outage?

We just saw one of our gig-e circuits to the Westin bounce three times and another just go flatline in the past hour.

Answering my own question I know, but the OnFiber/Qwest guys I spoke to informed me that they heard the Westin had some sort of backup power scheduled maintenance go wrong. That was the 3 bouncer. I still wouldn't mind independent verification of that.


The flatliner was XO, and it seems that it may not even touch the Westin (instead goes to 1000 Denny.) I still don't know what happened there. It did come back after 86 minutes of eerie silence. Anyone else with XO circuits see anything odd tonight?

Note to XO NOC: Your hold music is *awful* and on a way too short loop. It is bad enough when it is bad music, but to hear it over and over and over... for well over an hour, is customer torture.
