Hi,
Do people here normally use KVMs for management of compute nodes or
forego those and either have a grad student with a keyboard+monitor on a
trolley or rely entirely on remote management cards and/or IPMI?
My problem with old fasion KVMs is that all those extra
cables really mess things up. Plus, they're expensive.
For modern clusters with pretty reliable hardware, I just
use a crash cart or equivalent. I don't need to do this
very often so it works out OK.
Cordially,
