Maya,
Where are you colocated? Remote reboot is something that we offer our
customers standard with the rack space.
I have found the Baytech products to be fantastic for remote
reboot/remote serial access. You might want to look for something like
this: http://www.baytech.net/products/showprod.php?prod=DS2-RPC
(DS2-RPC) that offers both power switching and serial control in a 1U
form factor. It's a must have for remote systems.

Hello, all.
I'm tired of having to drive out to the colocation
facility each time my dedicated asterisk server craps
out, just to press the button to do a hard reboot.
(I'm running 1.05 stable at present, no telephony
hardware, as this is mainly a system that receives
calls, no dial-out ability is needed.)
I've been looking at the fancy xeon-based systems
listed on ebay for a couple of hundred dollars, in the
hope that some of them have remote reboot
capabilities, but most of the sellers don't mention
this ability, and by the time I send out email, the
item is already taken anyway. :)
So, to cut the long story short, has anyone used one
of these server-class machines with remote reboot
capability, and does it really help? Are there any
particular configurations to stay away from?
The wiki doesn't talk specifically about issues
regarding dual-CPU machines, but in following the chat
here on asterisk-users, it seems there are definitely
issues there ... can anyone elaborate? I don't want to
spend money on a fancy system that turns out to be
useless for my purposes.
Thanks for any insight!
Cheers,
Maya
