I have the stupidity of having two hubs, one for lights one for heating.

That PACS system had been developed for the US Veterans Administration by
Loral.
It featured a 20Gbyte RAID array which was portable - meaning you could
sling it under a helicopter.
Think a tall and wide rack of kit.
I also remember going to dinner with a full bird colonel from the US
military

We had endless wrangling about this in the early days. As I remember we had
one problem recruiter.
The policy is yes, infrequent posts from recruiters are OK. Also hope that
the recruiter adds something back to the community.

I have Hyperoptic. They are superb.
They originally only worked with apartment blocks - I believe this is no
longer so.
In our block they have a rack high up on a wall downstairs and every
apartment has a CAT5 line run up to it.
I don't know exactly what is in the rack. Hyperoptic depend on BT

I might have one of the first CUDA compatible cards in a Sun AMD
workstation.
1999 sounds too far too early for CUDA.

Talking about SD cards, the satnav on my Volkswagen used a full size SD

I bought an up to date SD card - which is not read by the system in the car.
It turns out there is something called CID Locking - the manufacturer is
encoded as a CID number on the SD card.
Any other type of SD Card even

There is a CAT5 copper cable run

Regarding iDRAC there is a comprehensive overview of the various features
here
Put simply, yes iDRAC supports IPMI.
I always advise getting the Enterprise license - you can get a months trial
license too.
Marco, you have summarised things very well here.
As an addition, you do not have to look at the rear of the server to figure
out if the server has IPMI.
Install the ipmitool package on your server (whatever the package name is)
Start the ipmi system service
The modules loaded should be
As above, you need to tell us a bit more about the servers you use. Also
some information about the rack would be useful too, and the existing PDU

When you plug it in what does lsusb tell you?
I have a Zoom USB webcam which works fine on Fedora and Raspberry Pi.
I bought it in MediaMart in Holland though!

As Martin Broosk says run memtest.
You can run the user space memtester on circa 90% of the RAM.
Ever better download https://www.stresslinux.org/sl/
Format a USB stick and boot from it. Then run the memtester utility there.
On a server I would advise to use the iDrac or BMC and get a list of the
