The management card fabricates a healthy pack. **The `UpsSelfTestFailed`
silence must be deleted the moment the pack is fitted, not left to expire** β€”
the issue carries the command and the reasoning.
- [ ] **Rack the shelf switch.** A 1U vented shelf (~$25–45) in **U4**, the one
free slot, carrying the unmanaged TP-Link that `prometheus` and `oracle`
hang off. **Buy it with the UPS pack above, not after** β€” the pack alone
leaves the monitoring path half-protected. Both shelf machines are laptops
with their own batteries, so on a mains cut they stay *running* and go
*deaf*: the switch between them and the network has no battery at all, and
a monitoring host that survives the event it exists to observe but cannot
report it is a strange way to lose an evidence trail. The shelf has room
beside the switch for the ProDesk in the item above β€” rack its cold-spare
role but leave it **powered off**, since a spare that is plugged in and on
the network is exposed to whatever took the primary.

Measured at the rack 2026-08-21, so the spec is settled: **4-post frame,
square mounting holes, depth is not a constraint.** That means a full 1U
shelf with rear support β€” not a cantilever β€” and **cage nuts plus screws**,
which most shelves include but not all; check the listing rather than
discovering it on the day. U4 is empty only because nothing had been chosen
for it, so there is no service clearance to preserve.

The one thing that could have removed the purchase has been checked and
does not: `morpheus` sits at U5 in a **purpose-built mount that holds one
ProDesk Mini** β€” a single-device bracket, not a shelf with spare room. So
the switch needs its own U, and the shelf is the way to give it one. The
1U shelf also has room beside the switch for a second small box later,
which the U5 bracket by design does not.

This one has no issue yet β€” everything else in this file does.

[#92](https://github.com/Gerrrt/HomeLab/issues/92) racks here too, powered off.
- **[#94](https://github.com/Gerrrt/HomeLab/issues/94) Decide what `oracle` is
for.** A dual-core A6-9200 with 4 GB and a 5400 rpm disk β€” too little for
anything demanding, and a candidate for the jobs that need a machine that is
