Sure what I mean is a physical monitor is more fun than a virtual console.

Curious though how you offer idrac to customer, do you have another OOB BMC for the idrac? Or is this internal engineering context

I really don't understand the difference. Either way, it is just a window into a computer. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We rent bare metal on-demand and our whole business is to be able to offer compute that you probably wouldn't be able to host in your house $, as if you own it yourself.

So, we made it so that users can get access into the BMC and modify the box however they want. When they are done, we've automated the reset as well. Fully self-service.

$ These boxes are very expensive, weigh 350lbs, sound like a jet engine and consume ~10kW.

Can we agree that 10 minute boot time is not fun?
