Yes, that will be in place anyway. PC Anywhere or similar, but=20
sometimes you really need KVM, because server doesn't start, or PC=20
Anywhere cannot start, and carring over monitor, keyboard and mouse=20
and plugging them is a bit of a hassle. Also, I need to take server=20
out of rack to plug the things in, and rack is basically mini cabinet=20
sitting on the floor of the utility room (which is, in fact cupboart=20
with clothes). So even if I move KVM over, I have to sit on the floor=20
in the corridor to work, which is fine for a few minutes, but not for=20
a serious work.
