physical access to the appliance is not possible or preferred like branch offices
and remote data center.
In case the appliance is not accessible using regular network interfaces, you
can access the NetBackup Appliance Shell Menu remotely using IPMI.
Reimage the appliance from the IPMI interface by using ISO redirection.
Monitor hardware health of the appliance from a remote location.
Avoid messy cabling and hardware like keyboard, monitor, and mouse (KVM)
solutions.
