I woke up this morning to a text from my ISP, “There is an outage in your area, we are working to resolve the issue”

I laugh, this is what I live for! Almost all of my services are self hosted, I’m barely going to notice the difference!

Wrong.

When the internet went out, the power also went out for a few seconds. Four small computers host all of my services. Of those, one shutdown, and three rebooted. Of the three that ugly rebooted some services came back online, some didn’t.

30 minutes later, ISP sends out the text that service is back online.

2 hours later I’m still finding down services on my network.

Moral of the story: A UPS has moved to the top of the shopping list! Any suggestions??

      Can confirm. Software is trash. Wanted me to connect it to the internet and setup a cloud access account. Like, dude, you’re a glorified battery pack I’m not adding a backdoor because you want to tell APC when my warrenty is about to expire so I can get marketing emails.
