That was a generic bmc-watchdog description. As for whether it works on the DL360, I don't know. HP obviously has to implement their side of the equation correctly (and to be fair, it's always possible there's a bug in my side too). I had to iterate with some Sun people a few times b/c they had a bug in their firmware a few years ago (which is since fixed).
