sjvnThis is not the cooling system I asked for.
Katiame@sjvn Ohhh, nooo....
@sjvn I work in a building next to a river. This is why none of the equipment is located in the basement, it's on an upper floor (higher than any flood waters would reach). The basement is just the gym and conference rooms.
@Katiame Not everyone has so much foresight. Just ask the 75 Broad Street in New York data center screw during Hurricane Sandy. https://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2012/10/31/peer-1-mobilizes-diesel-bucket-brigade-at-75-broad
Diesel 'Bucket Brigade' Keeps Peer 1 Online at 75 Broad
Employees of Peer 1, blog host Squarespace and Fog Creek Software have formed a "bucket brigade" to relay 5-gallon buckets of diesel fuel from the street to the upper floors of the 75 Broad Street in New York to keep their backup generator fueled.
@sjvn Our back-up generator is not in the same buidling. Our data back-up is in a completely different location in case of disaster. We cannot chance going down if something happens due to the kind of business we are. There are multiple contingencies for everything, most of which I am not privy to.
