Sunday Aug 21, 2011 around 2:30-2:40 pm the ETH Hönggerberg campus experienced a power outage. For some buildings (and/or power lines) the interruption was short and led to reboots of the affected computers. The HCI building remains without power as of this writing (4:20 pm). The server room at HIT D 13 seems not to have been affected by the power loss.

Some of our IT services are affected among them one of our DHCP servers and some of our backup servers. We will have to wait until power is restored in HCI to restart the affected services.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Update 5:15 pm power is restored in HCI since about 4:30 pm.
