No, I had proper OOB access and could do any kind of power cycling or remote console access from my desktop.

- hnfong 3y agoNever seen a hardware failure, I see.
- ninkendo 3y agoThe snark is getting a bit tiring. No, plenty of hardware failures but we had redundancy. Our availability wasn’t dependent on how fast I cold drive to the data center at 3am. Drive dies, who cares, there are plenty of hot spares, we’ll deal with it during business hours. Server dies, who cares, there are lots of them. We have remote hands too, so simple hardware replacement is something you can get cheap onsite labor to do. If your operations halt until some poor sysadmin has to drive to the colo, you are absolutely doing it wrong.
