  • IPMI:
    • make sure you are connected to Mozilla VPN
    • [Windows]:
    • [Linux64]:
      • go to the inventory and find the "OOB Ip:" URL and click on it
    • use the credentials stored in Releng private repo to connect

If you click "System Information", you can get a snapshot of the current screen image, although often the screen has blanked due to inactivity. "Remote Control" is your friend otherwise - it gives you access to the system's power control and to a remote-video Java application.

If the management interface doesn't work, file a bug for "Server Operations: RelEng" to have a look.

  • PDU:
    • OS X machines: bld-lion-r5, t-yosemite-r7
    • go to inventory and find the system.pdu value
    • append "mozilla.com" to the URL (ignore the last three letters)
    • go to "Outlet control"
    • find the three letter entry and change the dropbox value to "reboot"
    • go to the bottom and hit "apply"
