Also, out of nowhere, had a 2 second power blip last night. Everything else in the house shat it itself to varying degrees but my ESXi box under my desk happily carried on as if nothing had happened thanks to the small UPS I have.
(UPS is an ancient APC CS650 that my dad found at his local tip [which allows him to take things away] and the battery was useless but it was a simple replacement with a standard Yuasa battery for £20 and that's given it a brand new lease of life. I only need it to ride out these rare blips anyway, if the power goes out for more than a minute or so then it also gives me the time to shut things down or just shit itself if I'm not around to power things down safely. What was more annoying were the 4 or 5 house alarms near by that carried on for a good hour after the power had come back on.)
