WGB power outages

The WGB lost power on Wed 11th Aug 2010 and three times on Sat 14th due to the main 240v breaker in GN17 tripping, probably caused by a problem with the temperature sensor, from reports of other sites. It is likely to require a six hour power down at some future time to fix it (unrelated to the per-corridor shutdown on 16th August for monitoring work).

Power has been restored and the thermal sensor disabled but many machines came up before central services were available, so may need a reboot before they were usable. If a reboot does not fix it, or you cannot reboot it, please contact sys-admin.
