The PiKVM is a fantastic device to remote control your Windows, Mac, or Linux machines. It turns a Raspberry Pi into an IP based KVM switch that lets you remote control any machine from anywhere in the world! You can build your own, or buy a pre-assembled PiKVM like I did. In this video we try to scale the PiKVM to 8 devices, but things don't always go as planned.

What's something you NEED remote access to?

@pabloescobar9337 Год назад

My offsite backup server at my parent's house!

@VoklavTube Год назад

I usually use original second hand servers. And they come with the corresponding IPMI (idrac, ilo, ilom) ...but I have several small machines for which I am considering kvm switch. For now my wife is my kvm switch.

@cxl520 Год назад

Very cool video! As for me, I do not need a KVM yet, one of my powerful machines has IPMI and installed Proxmox VE on it. So I can remote any machine inside the VM. for another physical device, I just set the BIOS WOL enabled, if I want to turn a PC on remotely, I can send a WOL packet with VPN inside my network.

Hi Tim, what if you only have serial over USB, some edge devices don't have HDMI? I have two edge devices that I loop between USB to rj45 serial, and it works ok but can get screwed up. Would the eczoo allow me to connect rj45 to serial over USB?

@davidg5898 Год назад

Putting Ventoy on the KVM is one of those "It's so obvious that I can't believe I didn't think of it!" moments. Brilliant and perfect.

@0ChAnTi Год назад

The fact that you broke down the costs per remote controlled device is honestly the best take away from the video. Thank you for that.

@GeoffSeeley Год назад

That bootable Ventoy USB trick is pretty sweet...

@2x3x7 Год назад

I'm shocked because I literally did the exact same setup with PiKVM and Ventoy just a couple of days ago and the exact same mistake where I ordered an incompatible KVM (AIMOS) and then got the EZCOO afterwards, unbelievable to watch your video today! 😂

@JeffGeerling Год назад

You can buy a Raspberry Pi with this one weird trick!

@TechnoTim Год назад

ANNNND still cheaper than the scalpers!

@nmoses1224 Год назад

Hey Tim, Thanks for this. I use the piKVM at our small business. I set up 2 "headless" workstations that are used for Drop-Ins when we have contractors come in. To manage the 2 workstations, I grabbed a 2-port HDMI switch with USB support. Unfortunately, you have to physically hit the button to switch between them, however someone in the office can go in our cabinet and hit the switch if needed. The EZCOO would have been so much cleaner! I may have to invest in that in the future. Thanks again!

@eherlitz Год назад

What I like about this types of devices is the ability to standardize remote console access. When you run a heterogenous lab-environment with devices from many manufacturers you may end up with a setup that have remote console access but they are all different types, like vPro, iDrac, ILO etc. Great vid by the way, thanks Tim!

@marcosoliveira8731 Год назад

Great video. It was a good starting point to rethink the way I´m currently working um my lab.

@joshharding6925 Год назад

TechnoTim, AWESOME video and you're timing is insanely good (for me anyway). I've just started investigating a "cost-effective" KVM for remote sites hosting server infrastructure and needing an "Out of Band Mgmt" solution. The PiKVM and Ezcoo KVM looks like an awesome possible solution... however I also would prefer to have an 8-to-1 OoB option. The Ezcoo one shown in your video will be perfect for testing, however, real-world scenarios will more than likely demand more than 4 devices (for myself anyway). An alternative I've been investigating is an Aimos 8-in-1 HDMI KVM switch. This can use a keyboard sequence to change displays. Thanks once again for the excellent video. I'll be ordering a PiKVM and Ezcoo HDMI switcher very soon

@Killerman38rus Год назад

Nice, i used PKVM 1 year, job cool. Thanks your video

@kirksteinklauber260 Год назад

Thx for the video and I have a similar setup. I also use my PiKVM to control my servers but also I connect USB-to-Serial to the console port of my network switches (Juniper and Mikrotik) so I have an Out of Band solution for my servers and network devices alike!

@dronenb Год назад

Tim, a great video. Nice work

@primeix Год назад

@stankcheezzzzz Год назад

I've had a PiKVM + EzCoo KVM setup running for remote KVM into my cluster of HP Elitedesk 800 G3 mini desktops for a year-ish. Works great, except I had to disable the PiKVM's remote media emulation to be able to use the KVM in the HP systems' BIOS. With media emulation enabled, the keyboard isn't recognized until the OS boots. I also use the PiKVM as my NUT server.

@YeOldeTraveller Год назад

Thanks for the video. I've been thinking about doing something similar when I get my v4.

@AdmV0rl0n Год назад

All this is real nice! What this needs, is some form of wifi module - that can be attached to the ATX or power switch across several devices. WOL is great, but requires per device and OS setup, and if the device is actually in a real off state (say after a power cut), not having the ability hit the switch may be an issue (although in any home setup its less important! Still nice!

@undergroundguy4504 Год назад

That's so freaking cool. I need that for Shure in my home lab

@marcogenovesi8570 Год назад

I despise wake on lan (flaky at best on so many devices, also cannot force-poweroff something) so I have a ethernet-enabled (has a web interface) relay board that is connected to power button of all machines. I don't have NUCs so I just connect stuff to the atx front panel header. For NUCs you probably need to hook up those contacts from relay to a servo motor that will move its little arm to push the button

@NANA-yn3fp Год назад

I have many IP based HDMI switches and some have a feature to select a specific EDID or for it to copy and send source EDID you should check if the TES has a similar setting, hope that helps

@aflawrence Год назад

So i use the same KVM switcher with TinyPilot KVM (which uses the same base code set as PiKVM) . The key to getting this to work for me was needing to install an HDMI Splitter 1 in 2 Out and powering this with USB power. Evidently this setup allows this particular KVM switch to not poison the video signal to the TinyPilot. It might be worth a try to see if adding the splitter in between would work in your setup.

@DavidEsotica Год назад

Pikvm is incredible. I had an old Zero lying around, bought the required PCB and used cables I own. Got it up and running for

@mirceanton Год назад

How is the performance on the Zero? I have a few laying around which I could use for this but I assumed the anemic CPU and RAM wouldn't handle it properly.

@michaelamos75 Год назад

I have mine working fine with the 8 port rackmount Teksmart and the pikvm v3. I have the hdmi output of the KVM split into 2. One goes to the pikvm and one to a rack mounted portable LCD. The keyboard out goes to a pi keyboard and trackpad. The USB out goes to the pikvm OTG port. This allows me to switch between all devices while at my rack or remotely. I even have the pikvm hdmi out and USB into the KVM so I can make changes to it locally. Works with Proxmox, Ubuntu, Arch, Windows, Fedora, TrueNAS

@sniff122plays Год назад

Im tempted to see if i can get a pikvm for my work's US office, im at our main office in the UK and theres been a few times where its been a pain guiding staff through stuff to a point where i can remote into the machine. Would be so much nicer to just be able to plug in an HDMI and USB cable and boom i can do everything i could ever need to do

@GabrielStange0 Год назад

Some Aliexpress versions off PIKVM like BliKVM have a side rack mount bracket that works fine. Hope that PiKVM includes something like that on the project later, but it shouldn't be hard to make some new roles on that case to add generic ones.

@danielberglv259 Год назад

New project. Attach another 4 switches to each of the 4 ports on the one you have, and be able to manage 16 devices. If you manage to get the 8 port switch working, doing something similar, you could have up to 64 devices. And that is with just two layers. Think about a 3 layer setup :O

@aaaafaaaaf Год назад

Hi Tim, nice Video, but then again all your videos are pretty informative. I noticed that you have your NUCs in a rack. Can you share the info so I can see about buying one? Thanks,

@scottyz Год назад

I look forward to the update when you have this working 100% as desired.

@ferd352 Год назад

I have a similar TESmart 8port HDMI connected to my v3 PiKVM, connected to 2xWin boxes (Gigabyte/MSI boards) and 3xRPi4 and 1xRPi3b, have no problems seeing the screens although one Win machine won't switch out of 720p video no matter what I try. Then I have an HDMI splitter that sends the output of the KVM to both the PiKVM and a small screen for local viewing. I also have a v4 PiKVM coming when they are ready so I'm hoping it will sort out the video.

@DasletzteLP Год назад

I have to say that the only missing thing on the PiKVM project is having a ready made multiple ATX power control extension board. The community has made one already but you have to solder SMD yourself which is next to impossible for at least me...

@vileerdeng Год назад

Actually, the Nuc has an F-Panel connector on the board you can connect it to the ATX control board to power it on/off.

@seanakers8939 Год назад

Got the TESMart 8 port KVM myself. Looking forward to seeing if the V4 PiKVM will work with it.

@naseerfaheem 5 месяцев назад

Did it work for you? I am in market to find a reasonably priced kvm switch that works with pikvm. I have 6 servers and the ezkvm wont work.

@Aimtjie Год назад

Hi Tim, what is the rackmount kit you are using for the NUC's?

@davocc2405 Год назад

I've had a little to do with this via Novaspirit (Don) a while back, I think I may have been the one who first mentioned the project to him but he picked up the ball and RAN with it. The guy who runs the project is doing an EPIC job, I'd dare say he's "one of us" as in a proper techie who wants the product to work as well as humanly possible. The only reason I wouldn't get the assembled version is if I had to do some odd hardware configuration of my own; otherwise his case and accessory build looks very much on point. Also I love your config there with Ventoy acting as a local ISO storage, etc... The cost that configuration could save is outstanding, the number of unnecessary site visits that could be avoided alone is remarkable. Hell even including setup cost this would probably be paid for with a single site visit charge. I did initially also ask about the use of an external KVM to multi-system the solution, you actually did it - we were toying with modifying a conventional KVM to externalise its input toggle switch to a couple of wires that would plug into the Pi itself. Voiding warranty on the KVM of course but it may allow for a cheap/large rack mount unit to be used; I was thinking of connecting that to the GPIO pins on the Pi but I don't know how his software is configured to trigger the switch (perhaps a 3rd party USB triggered relay?). Run this all though some proper heavy encryption tunnels and it's a vastly better solution overall. Personally I'd prefer if I could have an additional layer to power the entire thing up or down through another means (closing the door on the access mechanism when it's not in use) though you might be able to achieve this through a simpler means network-wise.

@cbkcc1 Год назад

I have a 16 port TESmart and the piKVM working for some time in that fashion, curious what the difference is

@Knobiks Год назад

Just a side note, Wake on LAN stops working completly when you disconnect the power and reconnect it. Hence i would add a UPS to never lose the "sleep" state of the machines (pci devices like ethernet etc) :)

@ManuelRodriguez27 Год назад

You can also set the bios to power on the computer whe ac power is restored.

Awaiting the arrival of my Pi-KVM 4 units, loved this project from the start and have implemented multiple versions throughout it's lifespan. Great video on scaling, Level1 has similar KVM options that you can scale with a single Pi-KVM.

@sparky7635 Год назад

Hey TechnoTim, I have two questions to this setup: 1. Did you open a ticket at tesmart to get a fix for the edid issue? 2. One of the best pikvm features is to connect the pi directly to the hosts board to be able to reset or power off/on the system. Can you test this too pls and check if it would be scaleable also? I do not want to control 8 pcs only but also able to realy power them on or off using this setup if possible?!

@stevendodd6477 Год назад

My poor mans KVM consists of a wifi smart plug and setting my computer to turn on in the bios when power is restored - works great 😅

@judenihal Год назад

It really isn't "poor mans" KVM, computers were never designed for remote access, it was always designed to work with a monitor mouse and keyboard. Nobody ever needed the ability to video stream the computer monitor and remote control via mouse and keyboard. Enterprise servers always relied on the iLos and iDRACs for this. However, more and more infrastructures are becoming a requirement to a stream a computer with mouse and keyboard remotely which makes PiKVM a perfect solution for this.... someday though the input latency can be as good as RealVNC, because it is far from it.

@LiebJohnson Год назад

@salat Год назад

A bit a stupid question: I have a cluster build from Lenovo ThinkCentre tiny machines. They support intel AMT/vPro and can be remotely controlled (IP KVM) by e.g. MeshCommander. Why didn't you get Intel NUCs with vPro in the first place??

@salat Год назад

Btw, there's a list of NUCs with vPro at Intels site - just can't post it here because YT thinks its spam :)

@TechnoTim Год назад

Funny you mention this, this is exactly what I had planned and that's what this video would have been except one thing, I never bought the NUCs with vPro that support AMT 😁 I realized that too late to return them, but then started investigating PiKVM and was glad that I didn't pay more money for vPro to get remote control vs. a solution like this that is agnostic of hardware and will work with my devices in the future. It was a "happy little mistake" :)

Hi ! Nice video I search for something to manage my server remotely, that's why I bought a PiKVM hat3 just like yours. But I manualy change HDMI and USB everytime for each server. I will go with your solution it's seems just magic ! But one thing I don't really understand, in your doc you give how to have the toggle in the PiKVM (/etc/kvmd/override.yaml) but how did you say to your pikvm. "Use USB (X) to switch HDMI and USB in the EZCOO KVM Switch ?"

A quick side note on the TE KVM switch. it's input USB stack does not fully support USB hubs. if your keyboard has an internal hub and you want to plug your mouse into your keyboard then run one cable to the TE switch it won't work. you have to plug your mouse into the mouse USB port directly. not a show stopper, but a rather ugly annoyance. found the issue with my Das Keyboard..

Try a weytec keyboard/kvm switch. At my previous job had control over 160 servers that way. At my new job also requested a Weytec keyboard but now with only 10 servers to work on because most programs work in the cloud with them. Once you go Weytec you don’t want any other KVM switch anymore. Fully customizable keyboards with endless programmable macros and an OLED screen

@ytdlgandalf 6 месяцев назад

Not to spoil your fun, bc this is pretty neat, but don't the nucs have amt? I'm using amt to do remote which is a bit clunky software wise, but hardware wise it's free and no extra cables. In my case it integrates even with Canonical MAAS so reinstalls are completely automated with amt remote reboot and PXE
