Vibrating walls shafted servers at a time the SUN couldn't shine

dmacleo

worked at airline and handled it stuff (wasn't my primary job but eds was few hundred miles away so...) and kept having issues with the server shutting down.

due to being old hangar server cabinet (locked) and hangar mtx guy shaed same room.

when he left at night he turned lights out.

eds was supposed to plug cabinet/ups power into dedicated non switched outlet.

course they plugged into one easiest for them to reach which was switched off light switch.

didn't take long to figure out, walked in one night found lights off and ups alarm screaming. turned lights on screaming stopped.
