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

You can also check this: http://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:rack it's good,
because you can track your rack stuff under your wiki.

http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/nventory/wiki perhaps ? 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.
