We had a scheduled lab-wide power outage this morning in order for campus electricians to diagnose the electrical problems we\'ve been having lately. The outage went a little longer than expected, but the good news is that three significant problems were identified, one of which was fixed as soon as it was found. The other issues require new breakers. These need to be ordered and tested before installing, so it will be a while (months) before we undergo similar outages for these upgrades.
Meanwhile, as noted below our internet link went down for several days, only to suddenly spring back to life last night. So SETI@home classic/BOINC users got to enjoy at least an evening of upload/download before the power outage this morning. We have yet to hear what happened and why.
As always, after we recover from extended outages the data servers get overwhelmed with requests. It may take some time for the queues to clear.

Our Internet link through Cogent went down at around midnight UTC on March 18/19. This shut down our data service (upload/download). Cogent is still trying figure out what the problem is. We are also thinking about alternative ways to get the necessary bandwidth to the Internet.
