A decade ago, Joyent accidentally rebooted an entire datacenter, an experience that I described in my 2017 GOTO Chicago talk, "Debugging Under Fire":

On the next Oxide and Friends, @ahl we will be joined by folks who were at Joyent a decade ago, both to recall the fateful outage and to reflect on its ramifications, both at Joyent and beyond. Join us, Monday, 5p Pacific:

@bcantrill Thanks for a great episode! I got interested in how you implemented loading of the host OS, to see if I should implement something similar in my small homelab.

Found RFD 284, which refer to RFD 281 in the background section. From that summary, it looks like 281 is what I'm looking for?

@bcantrill You liked my post, so I guess RFD 281 is correct. Would it be possible to make it public? Or are there some NDA's that are stopping you?
