Downsouth, interesting insight from another board...This sounds very accurate, but I did not write it.. "My sources tell me that LU (Cascade) engineers are convinced that the central problem which led to the Wcom network outage was the fact that Wcom messed up their database prior to the upgrade. Furthermore, Wcom then chose to ignore Lucent's strong and repeated warnings to sync up their database. Apparently, the high CPU utilization was reproduced at Lucent by introducing the identical database problems that Wcom had introduced into their network prior to their upgrade. No wonder Lucent has not accepted blame for this. Assuming that this is in fact how Lucent feels (that it was actually Wcom's fault), how should they respond in the press?"
