Yeah…you don’t want to be in the data center when the fire suppression systems go off. That’s exactly it…they starve the fire by displacing oxygen.
Most datacenters have strict no-cardboard-in-cage rules for this reason.
And one of the points of a data center is for multiple people to pool shared costs. One of those big costs is physical security, which is where most of a datacenters payroll goes. So good luck getting a road flare anywhere near the servers.
But if you do get in, just hit the EPO switch. Problem solved.

Convenient that thermite brings its own source of oxygen!
