So I made the mistake of plugging my MacBook into the same power outlet as the secondary server.And of course, this morning, I unplugged the server instead of the Macintosh. Hilarity ensued.Once again, XFS saved the day. Server was back up in a few minutes without a hitch, and VMs rebooted without issues. Glad I put "softdep" on every line of the "/etc/fstab" of the OpenBSD machine. Saved me a lot of time.

@ParadeGrotesque Yeah, softdep all the things, except /, I mount that sync, almost no changes on that filesystem anyway, and you can recover from a lot of trouble with what you have on /.

@shreyas On OpenBSD, it makes the FS work with logging. Makes recovery much faster.
