                We were moving some equipment/racks. The original cable was too short so we
                moved the console (a std Compaq monitor/keyboard/mouse) and attached to the
                server. However, there is no connection. The screen stays black. I have
                done this on HP with no problem, however the HP servers do not support
                graphical console terminals so basically they are just the old dumb
                devices.

                Is there a way to reclaim the system console without going through a
                reboot?
