Hey folks, Does anyone know of a rack configurator that runs on CentOS? It does not have to even be very fancy - immediately I'm just looking for an easy way to keep track of what is in my racks, and being able to have a visual of it. Maybe juggle stuff around. Bonus if it does power calculations based on model numbers and so on - or data I punch in for each model. But really right now some kind of very specific CAD or Draw tool that is specific to this purpose. Or a template for a more general tool. thanks, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV? - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

I was only made aware of this about 24 hrs back, and had a brief look last night - looks quite good, bonus points for the puppet integration so one can use that as an external config / node / manifest provider. Which, in turn, might be a bit more than what you are loking for at this stage, but worth keeping an eye out for. -- Karanbir Singh London, UK | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
