San antonio 911 Outage

[Dark_Side]

San antonio 911 Center lost power
5/22/19 @ about 7:30 Pm Restored about 9pm
During this loss the dispatcher used handheld radios SAFD/SAPD

All PCs and Consoles where down
No TCIC/NCIC/Municipal Court
Warrants could be ran

SAFD had no selective call status
That's there paging of SAFD radios
SAFD Dispatched calls verbally
In hope there was open mode radio's
Going down the line till a unit answers
The call

At midnight the 911 center went down all the way *no 911 call ins where transferred to backup center


at This time of posting
we are using backup 911center (Radios/911 Center)

It been reported 911 calls went unanswered during the switch out midnight
And the 911 center may still have problems
With it's 911 calls till the reglar 911 center is back up and running

Public Safety IT has lost Every_Single_ key player in the past few years. It's a ship headed for an iceberg, the rudder just fell off, and the throttle is stuck on all ahead flank.

Oh and the life boats were removed in last years budget cuts

People left and weren't replaced? That never happens!

Too bad they awarded the new system contract to Harris instead of Motorola... then they would have had plenty of support. (I kid, I kid, don't shoot me.)
