Hi Mark,

I did not notice that the patch used the Slot attribute, so I added the 
Num Rows Num Cols attributes to the servers as well. Does anybody know how 
to get rid of attributes that has been added to an object but are not 
used?

Using the Slot attribute I'm able to place the server inside the chassis. 
However we do not use Bladecenters with a high number of Blades inside a 
chassis but Twin and Quad chassis from Supermicro. You changed the 
orientation of the server label from horizontal to vertical. It would be 
perfect if it would be possible to tell if the labeling should be done 
horizontal or vertical on a per server basis.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
