A squirrel shorted a circuit on campus causing one of the electrical phases to be lost. This brought power down on one battery backup system in the Info Systems Data Center which affected several servers including CampusWeb (AS400), email/webmail, Oracle calendar, Terminal Server and a Novell server. Power was restored about 9:05am and the off-line servers were be brought back on-line by 9:45am.
Our long distance provider is making changes to our circuit to fix a reocurring problem.
