Type: UPS Maintenance
Equipment involved:
Impact: Shutdown of home network, all services offline
Start: TBD
End: TBD
The batteries in the UPS that backs my home network (and thus my servers, aside for Juno and two unmanaged Ethernet switches) have been suspect for a little bit now since the UPS started reporting an abnormally high load. What makes me suspect the batteries is that running a self-test typically clears this abnormal condition, and returns the UPS to a more sane state.
The batteries are the originals installed in 2021 when I originally purchased the UPS, so technically they are getting close to that time where they might need replacing.
I'll schedule in the downtime when I have purchased the batteries.
