What the notice says

Due to the unforeseen failure of the existing air conditioning system serving the server room, immediate replacement is required to maintain operational continuity and protect critical IT infrastructure. The server room houses essential equipment that is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations; without effective cooling, there is a significant risk of overheating, system outages, data loss, and potential damage to hardware.
