What's their LOM like? I can't say I've been impressed with cheapo IPMI cards which (attempt to) piggyback off the on-board ethernet.

- lsc 18y agoyeah, the IPMI kinda sucks... more than DRAC, even (which is worse than HP ILO) I use SuperMicros but I just redirect console over serial (they can do this even for the BIOS setup, nearly all 'server' boards can) then I hook the serial to another server with a $5 USB to rs232 dongle (or to a terminal server in the case of racks with a lot of servers) then you want a remote rebooter. You want that even with DRAC, 'cause DRAC isn't particularly reliable.
