Homelab Hero · No. 010: your result

Hero call. 100 Hero Points.

Exactly right. The spare switch restores the house tonight — unmanaged is fine for one night — and the core switch gets its diagnosis on the bench, offline, where its twenty-minute reboots hurt nobody. Two people work from home through that switch tomorrow; service first, root cause second, in that order.

The lesson: Restore service on the spare first. Bench-test the failure where it can't drop the house.
