NAG Group: We am planning to purchase a new KVM switch for our server room. The majority of the machines are Windows servers, but there are also a couple of UNIX boxes in (Sun Solaris). Currently, the Sun systems are running as "headless" servers, but connecting a monitor and keyboard would sometimes be useful for troubleshooting purposes, especially if the system does not come up cleanly during a restart (which is actually quite rare). At any rate, since we will be purchasing a KVM for the Windows machines, it might be nice to have a "multi-platform" switch that we can use with both the Windows and Sun systems at the same time. We considered getting a KVM for the Windows machines and possibly a serial console switch for the Suns. but something that could combine the two platforms to use a single monitor and keyboard whould actually be quite handy. Has anyone out there made use of a multi-platform KVM that will work with both Windows and Sun Solaris systems? Any recommendations? All input will be most appreciated. Thanks.
