We need a power control unit for our 72 nodes cluster. My first
<br>idea was to do it ourselves with a digital i/o card and a set of relais,
but
<br>I can't find such a card for Linux. Actually, I have an ISA card
that
<br>is perfect for this application but for some reason with PCI bus
it
<br>is more difficult. Also, it seems that the "normal" solution is to
buy a
<br>comercial APC system.
<p>Any experiences with in-house made power controls ? Would you
<br>recomend us to buy the APC product ?
