I bought a KVM for that purpose, but didn’t get around installing it.
The other person able to do it manually will be available the same time as me more or less so I don’t want to bother them.

Yeah, I need to work on the busfactor.
The last time it went down was a similar situation and all the stuff I planned to prevent it next time I procastrinated on because the server was stable 🤦
It is a work trip to the middle east. I am unlucky with work trips and server maintenance 😓
poVoq here. After a string of bad luck it looks like I will not be able to get it back up before Tuesday evening. Super annoying.
A KVM is basically a second computer that acts as a virtual screen and keyboard that can be connected to the server to remote control it as if you were physically in front of it, including hardware resets and access to the bios etc.
