Actually, you don't need a DRAC to use IPMI on modern Dell hardware: all the recent PowerEdge machines (>=8th generation) come with an integrated BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) which does IPMI. So you can remotely power cycle your Dell servers for free (no extra card to buy) Cheers, -- Kilian _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
