Woke up today to the homeserver being unresponsive. Couldn't SSH, no video out when I connected a monitor, and even the reset button didn't do anything. Had to hold the power button to shut it down.

/var/log/syslog doesn't show anything interesting other than the issue happened at just after 4am. Log

Would something like this be a direct hardware failure? Like a power supply hiccup or something? It happening at 4am coincides with my electric car starting to charge, but the server is on a dedicated 20A circuit and behind a battery backup. I also don't see any power issues on my Sense monitor at that time though it has limited resolution.

Mainboard is a Supermicro H13SAE-MF and I'm using ECC RAM.

I've been running this hardware for over a year and never had this issue, but I'm running out of places to look.

Might be time to finally get IPMI working.
