>>>All 40 of the Dell servers which make up these two Vaults were relocated to the top of 52U racks, and it appears that initially they did not like their new location.

Or the way in which they were handled during the relocation?

My guess would be vibration at the top of the rack which is why when you relocate them they do much better. This is such a great thing to call out explicitly with data.
Maybe they moved them again to confirm location was the issue
“All 40 of the Dell servers which make up these two Vaults were relocated to the top of 52U racks, and it appears that initially they did not like their new location. Recent data indicates they are doing much better, and we’ll publish that data soon.” Italics mine.

Seems like they changed something.

Cooling or vibration issues seem like the first suspect?
