If someone is doing this, especially wrt to 1U servers, perhaps someone
could provide a pointer to a reboot solution that would allow a single
reboot device to control 42+ 1Us in a single rack. From my occasional
interest in this area, I've seen lots of reboot solutions. Most of them
take as many as 4-10 U to reboot 40 machines, which sort of obviates the
need to reboot 40 machines in a single rack in the first place. Unless
you use 10ft racks, I guess.
