Access device’s main information on hover
Get detailled information on elements by hovering them (Fields to display are easily customization through the configuration file).
Identify specific devices type
Highlight device types by hovering the legend.
Drag & Drop
Drag & drop elements in the graphical view to easily set their position instead of manually editing each elements!
Complex enclosures
- Support for complex enclosures like HPE BladeSystem c7000Ā or any form factor via aĀ grid systemĀ !
- From vertical server-blades to devices with heterogeneous widths / heights
- Integrated layout wizard
Enclosure layout design
Devices positioning on enclosure
Rear panel support
- Available for both racks and enclosures
- Automatically shows occupancy on the opposite panel
Occupancy rates
- Keep an eye on your racks and enclosures occupancy rate in real time
- Distinct indicators for front and rear panels
Power capacity
Keep an eye on your racks power consumption:
- Fill devices expected consumption
- Max. expected consumption on each rack & enclosure is automatically computed
- Compare it with contracted power and actual power reading
Weight capacity
Keep an eye on your racks & enclosures weight capacity:
- Fill devices weight
- Cumulated weight on each rack & enclosure is automatically computed
- Compare it with the maximum weight allowed by the element itself or the server room specs
Consistency checks
Optional consistency checks are made on elements during creation / update:
- Overlapping elements
- Malpositioned elements (outside rack’s / enclosure’s grid)
- Total elements’ height exceeds rack’s / enclosure’s capacity
Audit rules
Comes with a bunch of audit rules to keep your datacenter vision clear:
- Production elements should have position set when attached to a rack or enclosure
- Positioned elements should be attached to a rack or enclosure
- Positioned elements should haveĀ Rack unitsĀ attribute set
- Positioned elements should not overlap another one
- Positioned elements should not be outside its rack’s or enclosure’s (exceed height or malpositioned)
Reserved slots
Two new object classes to better describe your racks and enclosures:
- ReservedSlot: Reserve space in a rack / enclosure for any future usage or element.
- MiscEquipmentSlot: Mark space as used for patch panel or cable management for example.
Custom classes
You have some custom classesĀ (not derivating from DatacenterDevice) that you would like to use in racks and enclsoures? No problem! Just register them in theĀ custom_device_classes config. parameter, make sure they have the required attributesĀ (see documentation) and they will automatically appear. š
Zero-U devices
Manage devices with non standard size / positioning such as USB drives, vertical PDUs, non rackable devices, … Just mark them as such to make them appaer in the bottom-right panel of their host, easy as pie!
Misc. options
- Us order: Reverse Us order per rack / enclosure to fit your set-up
- Enclosure layout: Either display enclosure’s elements or just the number of elements in it
