It’s more about the size of the area on-call IT personnel are expected to cover, cause they’re frequently huge. It’s normally not a problem because the more remote regions have less hardware and thus are less likely to have issues, but it does happen occasionally.
It shouldn’t happen for a power button. Even if your IT people are regional, you need somebody on site who can follow technical directions so emergency drives aren’t necessary if you have something like a server that needs to stay up.
I’ve seen this happen, its always because managers make bad decisions.
