You can definitely do it remotely by taking over the PC OS through
something like VNC, Remote Desktop, GoToMyPC, etc. I would highly
recommend you setup remote access to the service processor interface
(ASMi) so that you can view the SRC codes.

But also, have a backup plan to get onsite just in case something goes
severely wrong. I got lazy once and failed to ensure that ALL of the
tape drives were empty and the customer had left a full system save in
the internal QIC drive from an earlier move.

Murphy is ALWAYS out to get you....

Subject: LAN Console upgrade

I was reading a Pete Massiello post on facebook about doing an upgrade
via
lan console. Can't you do the whole upgrade remotely?

On the side I have someone with a new 520 they just installed to migrate

Domino to i from Windows. They are also using lan console. I've got
them
on 6.1 with latest ptf's. However when it's time to upgrade to the next

release I'd like to do that entirely remotely. This is why... After
getting some other stuff on it they will be moving it to some concrete
bunker like server center where they normally aren't allowed in. Some
big
names use this facility also. The only people on site are armed guards.

We have SNDPTFORD scheduled to run weekly for the cume and all groups.
PWRDWNSYS scheduled once a month with a restart.

Backups, well that's a whole other story...
