Who said you need to have serial console to do remote upgrades. Yes it
might be nice, but hey, I have a truck load of servers without remote
console access and I sure upgrade them remotely as well without a
problem. I just did it again for 3.9 and because I always use one
service per servers, like mail, or dns, or smtp, or www, etc. One
applications per servers, making the upgrade is so easy and doing
remote, the first one take me more time, but after that, may be 15 to 20
minutes max each. And sometimes, I do multiples at once. So easy!

You got to love OpenBSD!
