I wonder if it was just Hero's rack. We got notification that we lost all sip peering at 9:29pm and then came back about 2 minutes ago.

I believe Hero is in 220Q... we have a bit ourselves in 220Q and nothing there seemed to fail.

The A feed UPS in that datacentre failed. Impacted a decent number of racks and various datacentre customers, ourselves included.

It was only a single power feed which was impacted, which is now bypassed from the UPS and restored. Anything powered across multiple feeds shouldn’t have experienced a power outage.
