[Kelvin-users] Cluster downtime

[Sean McGrath]

Dear all,

Thanks for your patience on this matter. We are still working on the results of
the fire system activation over the weekend. The majority of the nodes in
Lonsdale and Parsons are back in service. Many of the nodes in Kelvin are being
problematic though and we are still working through them. We will advise when
they are back in service.

Unfortunately we are still none the wiser as to the root cause of the fire
system activating.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards

Sean
