Operator involvement: Minimal for once.
Status: Resolved.

Jellyfin went down.

The homelab has unexpectedly entered power-saving mode.

A power outage has taken the server offline, along with the services that were unfortunate enough to be living on it.

No application-level issues have been identified at this time. The server simply has no electricity, which is generally considered a fairly effective way to stop a server.

Impact: Jellyfin and dependent services unavailable.
Cause: Power outage.
Operator fault: Surprisingly, no.
Current status: Waiting for civilization to restore electricity.
