I am being told, "Well, we (mgmt) think you should turn it all off, but do as you think right.  Oh by the way it will be your responsibility if anything happens if you don't."  Bah!  What nonsense.  What could go wrong other than power failing?  We have conditioned power to the computer room so spikes won't get through.  We will turn off PCs though.  But then we would anyway for a four day weekend.

Dear Listers,

We are a manufacturing site and have put together our end of the
year/rollover plan. There is one issue which seems to be open to debate:
whether or not to power off the 3K and 9K SPUs during the rollover. My
preference is to shut down applications but leave the hardware and OS
running.

Any thoughts on the pros/cons of leaving the systems up? What are your
sites planning?
