I totally understand mission critical motivations, but I reached a different conclusion from you. I’ve been HA’ing for a long time and everything dies eventually.

Do you have a backup HA green in the cupboard? my wife would murder me if I couldn’t get the house back in 24 hours. I want to use hardware that you can buy literally anywhere so I don’t need to keep a backup.

I’m not there yet, but I havve moved to running HA on a proxmox server and have used my HA backup to recover from a software failure. I’m now thinking about what the same would look like for a hardware failure, either the mini pc or the zigbee dongle.
