Personally have gotten sick of dealing with basically every other vendors PDU out there but APC. APC PDUs may not have every whiz-bang feature but they work. SNMP or SSH pretty solid. You still probably want them on a closed management network but problems even in the wild 'net with port 22

Hello Michael, does that mean you do not employ PDUs in your network? I.e., found a UPS with sufficient number of outlets in the back. With that in mind, could you make a recommendation for such a UPS-direct for a VM environment. Kind Regards, Nick.

Thanks, I think the amount of love for the APC stuff confirmed my experience. I'll look at the Raritan PDUs as I like their KVMs but if I have to use their software or a WebUI to manage it (I use AddleLink for remote to the KVM because I don't like proprietary management) I won't use their PDU.
