Power failure again with no obvious reason. This time there were problems: n0007 appears to be dead (no POST), and the server failed to shutdown cleanly. xfs_check repaired one unlinked file coming from slurm. Server boot-up normally (?).

The current scenario concerning unclean shutdowns is that the culprit is the powerfail-duration line in /etc/pwrstatd.conf : it seems that whenever powerfail-duration is not zero, the shutdown is not clean. We'll see …

Power supply replaced on n0007 → back to service.
