Dell Poweredge 2900, ESXi U4 on USB stick. Using the VI Updater I've downloaded and installed the most recent firmware update (which fixes a nasty bug btw).
I suspend the VMs, initiate a reboot (without maintenance mode) and the next thing I notice was that nice pink screen of death on the IP console. This is a production machine, so I quickly rebooted the server a couple of more times, but I couldn't reproduce the bug.
