Beginning with
through the end of the thread, I see no reference to a UPS.
As we all know, databases do not like abrupt power-off conditions
There are times when PMS will (frequently) say “malformed” when there is no real damage only because it wasn’t a proper shutdown. ( Much like the computer OS not shutting down cleanly ). In these cases, manual intervention is required.
Do you have logs captured from the last abrupt shutdown so I can see if that’s the case ?
As for using a UPS, it’s generally good advice on ANY NAS for the sake of the filesystem. Protecting the applications, like PMS, which may be running on it is an added bonus.
I have two UPSes for my servers. My main server has an external battery.
I have these due to where I live (winter snow and violent summer storms)
