    You can’t reboot a server remotely? My vast experience having been in one collocation once made me think that surely in big datacentres each server has a remotely controllable switch on its power source, like something that comes integrated with the rack itself? Is that not a thing?

        Did I say “replace”? Oh, sorry, I meant “reboot”. Must have been distracted when I typed that. Silly me.

          From experience, the remote “reboot” actuators sometimes they need to be rebooted themself

            Well then you add a remote reboot switch for the reboot switch. Duh!
