It's not lack of UPS. Power issues are taken care of here. It's a buggy
3ware controller which hangs the machine ocassionally and the only way
to have it come back is to power cycle, hard reset is not enough.
So just to summarize your position: you think it is ok to run a database
on a buggy disk controller but are afraid of problems with normal OS
utilities? :) You are of course free to do whatever you want but it
seems odd :)
