[Resolved] Disrupted service 16.04.2015

We had 2 hours of downtime today that was caused by electrical problems that took out our Top of the Rack switches.

The problem was between 14:00 and 16:00 and was fixed by an electrician at the data center.

We are very sorry about the problems this caused for our users and we will be looking at ways to avoid any similar event in the future.
