These small little handy-dandy devices seem to get more and more popular. Anyone here chipped in for a JetKVM yet? Looks and sounds pretty solid. Are there a lot of you that have aquired a nanoKVM?

    How often are you people screwing things up so badly that your servers aren’t reachable over the network and require keyboard/monitor access? This is basically only ever once for me for the initial OS install, and even then that can be automated away if I had to do it more than once every couple years

      Don’t have to screw anything up. I have a machine that has a weird stability issue that I haven’t tracked down - it seems to take out the PCIe bus, so the errors don’t get logged to disk or network - without my KVM I’d have to leave a monitor connected just for this edge case and be home to check on it
