FYI - you can also use these devices as fencing agents via telnet, SSH, or SNMP access. We used them with Red Hat clustering, but I am sure they could be used for other things. I am not too familiar with OSX and heartbeat/cluster setups but it is a good STONITH option.
I think we have about 10 of them and they have been rock solid since day 1. I have avoided a few 25 mile "commutes" in the middle of the night because of these guys.
Thanks,
Eric

As we all know by now, the Xserve will be discontinued on January 31, 201. In light of this situation we will be specifying the Mac Pro and Mac mini server as the current alternatives.
For remote power control of both the Mac Pro and Mac mini, you can now specify the following Ethernet controlled power distribution units. This gives back *some* of the functionality and capabilities that were available with an Xserve equipped with dual power supplies. I realize that this isn't as good, but when relying on Mac Pros and Mac Minis for core services, this helps significantly.
Ethernet Controlled Remote Power Management:
