          These ilo and drac are for remote control of host machines just like IPMI from Supermicro?

              Lenovo IBM servers have the same thing, free only gives you basic stuff and health monitoring, while paid allows you to remote connect to console.

              I checked the license and its around ~300 USD.

              They all learn from each other.

                SuperMicro VARs are looking better every day, or did they start charging for IPMI features as well?

                  Not as far as I know. SuperMicro is definitely the big winner from HPE and Lenovo falling apart. Dell and SuperMicro are the only vendors I even consider in the US today. Fujitsu outside of the US (just hard to get in the US.)

                    Deployed a HPE server last year. Painful beyond belief. Making me twitchy about using them again.

                        The HP iLO software is full of vulnerabilities. It has to be updated constantly. It is terrible.

                          And doesn't it STILL require Java on the clients!

                                    I think IPMI managed to phase out Java, if I remember.

                                      my old G5 required additional license in order to get remote console access.

                                        My 2 XS hosts are running IPMI fw from 2014, unfortunately Java still required for things. Perhaps not in recent ones.
