    The MIS team has been working on building out a complete DR plan for every service we use in the company, but it is not implemented yet. I am a Web developer in the marketing department (strange, I know) so I'm not on the alerts except for the Web servers. I would imagine some alerts were at least queued up by the monitoring system, but the email servers and/or network was already not functioning, so... I have to say, our MIS team is awesome at handling issues with as much grace as possible. From the time they knew, they were able to coordinate the AC repairs and get everything back up within 3 hours.
