Abstract
A universal serial bus (USB) server includes USB connectors. Each USB connector is configured to interface via USB to an endpoint server. The server includes a terminal manager configured to issue a command to a first endpoint server via a selected one of the USB connectors. The selected USB connector is associated with and connected to the first endpoint server. The terminal manager is further configured to determine whether a response has been received to the command, and, based on a determination that no response has been received to the command, attempt to power up the first endpoint server through the selected one of USB connectors.
