Hello Kirk

thanks

That is just part of the standard hardware checks that occur during a boot cycle.

ESXi did have a 'quick boot' feature that didn't trigger an actual host reboot.  See https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/com.vmware.vsphere.update_manager.doc/GUID-3BE855BA-BC43-4133-A493-6AFB30B461B3.html#GUID-3BE855BA-BC43-4133-A493-6AFB30B461B3 although that did have some limitations.

If quickboot isn't an option, not really anything you can do about that, aside from locating the server in rack, far , far away from you desk ;)
