You might also want to look into the watchdog package. All of my |
2 |
machines that have IPMI support also have a hardware watchdog device. |

You can use the ipmi_watchdog kernel module (or another hw watchdog |
4 |
module) set with various options along with this piece of software to |
5 |
have the hardware automatically power cycle should the software fail to |
6 |
reset a hardware timer after a period. This would allow the hardware to |
7 |
automatically recover from some sort of software lockup like a kernel panic. |
