&gt; Grady Hospital used to have their data center in the basement of the
&gt; hospital.  It had it's own set of large sump pumps, big 25hp units and
&gt; they were used quite often.
&gt; 
&gt; To top that off the floor above was the x-ray lab that seemed to have
&gt; leaks quite often.

&gt; &gt; Earlier this week, the Governor's Budget Office,
&gt; &gt; www.opb.state.ga.us, had a server outage for the better
&gt; &gt; part of a day.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Apparently, the plan was that if they put the server room
&gt; &gt; on the 8th floor they were safe from most any natural
&gt; &gt; disater that might happen, especially flooding. And since
&gt; &gt; the server room used to be regular office space, they went
&gt; &gt; to the extra trouble of disabling the water based fire
&gt; &gt; suppression system and had installed a shiney new Halon
&gt; &gt; system.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; But, as Murphy would have it, earlier this week their
&gt; &gt; server room ended up with approximately 10,000 to 12,000
&gt; &gt; gallons of hot water in it, needless to say bringing the
&gt; &gt; system to a crawl.
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; So, after all had settled and the last mop and bilge pump
&gt; &gt; left the server room. We come to find out, the only hot
&gt; &gt; water heater on the roof for the entire building was
&gt; &gt; conviently located directly above the server room.
