What is your definition of regularly, and what qualifies as getting it fixed? I know lots of places that had things scheduled, but on the day of, something "came up" that the test was pushed. I've seen others where they tested by only firing up the generator, but didn't actually use it to power the facility. I've also seen repair tags that sat "unlooked" at for years.

Not every facility is managed/financed the same for such a blanket statement as yours.

Most places I know of where like that until 'something' happened and now they take a lot more care.

So this will force datacenters that employ "reliability theater" to either actually be reliable or give up the facade and take repeated outages?

Ok!

Exactly! And one of points, based on real work experience, I was trying to make.
