But for the survey, would you respond 350? Or the 60 or so that you are personally handling?

I.E. Did you respond 50-100 or over 100?
Dave,

Very good point, I responded over 100. Albeit other than scripts running checking up on things via stored keys, I bet I only manually login to 40-50 per month. I see where you were getting the incredulity reaction from now.

NAME
pwrkap_aggregate - Present a large number of pwrkap servers as if they were one SYNOPSIS
pwrkap_aggregate config_file DESCRIPTION
pwrkap_aggregate is a daemon that connects to a multitude of pwrkap servers and power control domains, and presents them as if they were one server with a smaller number of domains. By aggregating pwrkap server instances, it is possible to monitor many thousands of servers without overworking the command console. It is also possible to give identical class designations to a group of pwrkap servers and manage them as an aggregate. OPTIONS
config_file Text file mapping pwrkap servers to aggregated domains. See pwrkap_aggregate(5) for information about the config file format. AUTHOR
