Dell DRAC and RAC as well as IBM RSA will do similar funtions - as well as shut it off cold, and start it up - remotely.

Shutdown -r -t 5 -m \\mydc

 

that will reboot mydc in five seconds using the interactive user's credentials. The utility is inc w/ 2003, in the 2k res kit. It needs to be on teh client machine, not the server.

 

If you want to cold boot it, and you have Compaq hardware, you can do this with the iLo board. Not sure if the Dell DRAC or other vendors have a similiar facility.

Is there any way to schedule an unattended restart, warm or cold boot, of a DC ?
