Some background:
- have a poweredge r320 on battery backup (basic APC unit)
- have unifi dream machine
- poweredge powers down automatically if power goes out
What’s the safest way to allow myself to power on the server in the event it shuts down while I’m not home?
I figure since I have remote access to my UDM, perhaps there’s a command I can execute from there to power it on?
My fear is using a method that provides more than just poweron commands remotely. I want to keep the server attack vectors down.
I was under the impression you need a license to use remote access via idrac. Do you know if it also requires a second run of ethernet cable separate from the server NIC?
