I left home for a week, on holiday. The day after I left, I received a message from the condo that they'd cut the electricity for 1 hour on that day.

My router and my Bitcoin node are on a UPS (APC) but it didn't last long enough 😐

So, I lost access to my LN bitcoin...

Is there any way to restart my Dell Optiplex micro running Start9 remotely?

I can't think of any... Only the power button will turn it back on, I'd say. But that's not convenient at all! And unreliable...

I don't know if it's possible to start it remotely. But for future, once you're back: go into bios and look for power settings, there must be, hopefully, an option so that when power comes back it turns on automatically.

Interesting, thanks.

The issue, now that I'm back home, is that StartOS is stuck in diagnostic mode 😐

I tried to rebuild the system. Also tried the repair drive option. Nothing works...

I may have to flash it again.

Ah, sucks man.

Option to automatically turn on in the BIOS and a communication port for remote access. But this opens up attack points, which increases the risk. Ideally, it should be as automatic as possible. For example, create a script that checks if everything is correct and, if not, restarts the machine.

OK, thanks for the info. When I fix my StartOS, I'll try finding the option in the BIOS. But not sure if I can create a script - maybe with AI...
