DELL idrac embedded BMC- good console server replacement?

2011-01-17 Thread Paul Macdonald
Does anyone use the (dell) idrac embedded bmc on their bsd boxes.. I'm only interested in easy 'serial' access to the bios, and the running system, no need for any grpahical interfaces obviously. From what i've read they can power up/down machines too, but i'm a bit confused with the docs.
