This is like that time my car's 'check engine' light came on, and I just turned it off instead of actually fixing the problem. Clearly, the self-healing system needs a better diagnostic system.

Maybe the disk utilization alarms being higher than what the service restarts require caused the issue.

But if the conditional checks prior to the service restart succeeded, why did some services not fully restart?

Ah, the classic case of 'I can fix it, I can fix it!' except the system couldn't. Option D is the way to go, gotta check those conditions before jumping in.

Haha, the self-healing system clearly needs to work on its self-awareness. Can't just declare everything's fine when there's not enough disk space to do the job!

I think the reason for the silent failure could be option B.

The issue seems to be that the self-healing system didn't properly check the available disk space before attempting to restart the services. Looks like option D is the correct answer here.

Option D makes sense then, since the checks before the restart succeeded.

Yeah, it seems like the conditional checks before the service restart didn't catch the issue.

I think the problem was that the self-healing system didn't check the disk space before restarting.
