Hard to say - it will back off as soon as the rapid connection attempts stop - there is no way of knowing when that will be.  Say wait a few minutes then retry.
# https://rt.cl.cam.ac.uk/Ticket/Display.html?id=94616 suggest that (cl-)amttool, amtterm, wsman and ipmitool need to be added to the tools. See the section on RemoteManagement on http://www.wiki.cl.cam.ac.uk/clwiki/SysInfo such as http://www.wiki.cl.cam.ac.uk/clwiki/SysInfo/IAMT and http://www.wiki.cl.cam.ac.uk/clwiki/SysInfo/IPMI  ''(vrw10: Note made at [[Service_Desk_Knowledgebase:_Remote_Management#Further_CL_Sys-Admin_Resources | Remote Management]] but we'll need a step-by-step guide and training to use these tools.)''
Is that the right ticket.  Those tools are normally just used via something like sandy by users.  You can use them from that or form laira (or other omnipotent machine).

Answer: Ask them who they want by top level category such at teaching staff, SRAs. They just use cl-ckadr -v to ensure the person does not in the final list.

This is the CL Wiki Required Updates page of Service Desk Knowledgebase. The overall objective is to provide a catalogue of services which the CL provides to its users, and to provide focused information about them. The target audience is however the Service Desk team in order to help them handle incidents, problems and requests about CL services.
