Homelab Hero · No. 006: your result

Second-best call. 40 Hero Points.

Nothing can be lost in a storm if the rack is off — that earns the partial credit, and if the lab can be dark for days it is a defensible call. But the mains are up, the shutdown setup is tested, and a weak UPS still covers short blips; shutting everything down buys safety you mostly already have at the price of days offline.

The lesson: Off is safe but expensive. Match the response to the actual exposure.
