IPMI console access

Project ID: 
76
Current stage: 
Manager: 
Unit: 
What: 

Description: This is a fork of #31.

Deliverables: Documentation and procedures for IPMI console access.

These have been completed and are available from the project's home page (given above). For completeness, the documentation produced is as below:

Why: 

Customer: Anyone who needs "remote" access to a machine's console.

Case statement: See #31 for the initial case statement. This project was forked for clarity,
as there was otherwise the likelihood of serial-console milestones being lost
among IPMI ones, and vice versa.

When: 

Status: Completed

Timescales: Ideally this would be ready for the move to the new building, which now looks
as though it'll be some time around Christmas 2007.

How:

Other: 

Dependencies: Console access can be provided by #31 if necessary, so strictly speaking
nothing is actually depending on this project. It would make life simpler
and cheaper if it were available, but it won't be a disaster if it's not.
