Each node had a small embedded linux processor on top of the console access that provided a virtual console over the net -- so you could power cycle, reset, mount virtual DVD images -- all remotely. The only tricky part was figuring out the IP address of the particular virtual console interface you wanted when you had 2000 of them to sort through. :-) We ran "rocks" which offered a lot of tools for sorting through this and managing all the details. But if we need to start a fund to fly Martin to California, just let us know and we'll make it happen. :-) Curt.
