The two issues are isolated.

One datacenter suffered massive power failure while the other hand network equipment fail at roughly the same time.




The network equipment failure was due to a software error[1]. I would not rule out some kind of cascading failure triggered by the initial outage until the cause of the bug is known, though OVH seems comfortable with such a statement.
