Sun Mar 30 21:56:52 PST 2003 — PacBell DSL services restored. The SMS-1800 DSL termination hardware failed, and additionally failed to reboot on it own. Actually, it took quite a bit of coaxing to get it to boot properly; it’s FE (Forwarding Engine) failed to initialize until we removed one of it’s redundant power supplies that had been quietly complaining for the past few days. We replaced the power supply with a spare and all appears to be well. Please note: our LATA9 DSL subscribers were not affected by this outage and are terminated on a SMS 500 colocated in Stockton. -Kelsey and Nathan
