"2) Service Interruption Credits
If Services are interrupted for a period of at least 24 hours after notice by the Customer to CloudatCost, an allowance equal to 1/30th of any fixed billing cycle charges for the affected Service shall apply to each full 24 hour period during which the interruption continues. Credit in any billing period shall not exceed the total average monthly charges for that period for the affected Service. No allowance shall apply to any non-recurring or usage charges. The Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for Service interruption shall be the credit outlined above
The Customer must request credit within thirty (30) days of the validated interruption, failing which the Customer forever waives its right to any credit for such outage. CloudatCost reserves the right to determine in its sole and absolute discretion if an interruption is considered a validated interruption.
At no time will multiple remedies be provided to the Customer for same, similar or related troubles for the same service. Customer payables must be current prior to the Customer receiving any credits
No credit shall be provided for interruptions due to the following:
the failure of any component, software, network or system provided by the Customer or a third party;
network maintenance by CloudatCost;
Force Majeure events;
acts or omissions, negligent or otherwise, of the Customer or a third party, or any breach of any term or condition by the Customer of the Master Services Agreement or any schedules or addenda attached thereto." -

Wasn't redundant networks one of the selling points of the current solution?

It's always been one of their selling points. That and using Fibernetics and their data center. They have redundant networks. So it was true. They just didn't fail over to them. So, It's honest marketing. We just assume redundant means they will fail over.

@thecreativeone91
Ya they have redundancy, but not automatic it seems.

Redudancy isn't automatic or not. It just is. It's the failover that's automatic. SAN sales people (and many others) pull this kind of stuff all the time.

I had a blip in the panel, but I can also confirm that Re-Image has been replaced with upgrade hardware.
When the panel is working, I DO still have access to power on / off.

But is it actually working? Mine is still there but it never actually powers off or restarts. It just says it is.

Panel is down for me again with this.

Like how most SAN marketing works. It's redundant like they bought more than they need.

Not until people threaten them.

Yes. Like in England having redundancy means you have more employees than necessary. Being redundant means you'll be fired.
I have redundant couches. I can only sit on one at a time.

Does it do anything? Or is it a marketing button?

I should have thought to check it... but I was actually just waiting around for my system to come back up so I could make backups.

A couple of us checked it. It does nothing.
