Start IPMI shell;
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.21 -U ADMIN shell
Use ipmitool to for serial over lan to host;
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.21 -U ADMIN sol activate
Reset remote host
# ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.21 -U ADMIN chassis power reset
Configure GRUB to work with Serial Device;
