Earlier this afternoon our monitoring detected a fault with a switch at the top of a rack in our data centre.  Rack 3 in DC 2 failed.  We replaced the switch and restored the configuration from a backup.  Most severs came back on line immediately. There are 18 dedicated servers in this rack.

Two servers failed to regain connectivity.  We re-seated the network cable and the servers came back on line.

This is a rare event and our contingency plans worked well.  We apologise for this unplanned outage.
