(I am a IoT enthusiast) But when everyting moves into that more automated space, what happens if the servers that connect the networks that power our devices, go offline?

Well I started HA journey so I can ditch all cloud based subscriptions, not to increase them, period. Goal is to unplug fiber optics that supply my internet connection and that everything works locally, still.
2nd goal is is the case that even HA server fails, you can still have dumb house functionality for lights, blinds, covers, AC's...
Using regular switches, remotes...

What I need to figure out is if my HA VM or server lockup/breaks can I get it to auto restart
