As in any inventory system, each object must have a unique name. That's why it
is best practice in a datacenter to name an equipement following its
location-datacenter-row-cabinet-UniqueID *or use the service tag or any other
way to have unique logical object name*

Each server should be treated as a unique object. So make a Nexus-3000-1 and a
Nexus-3000-2 and rack those and racktables will treat them separately.

I added 4 different objects.

In my case I have two (say Nexus 3000) in the same rack.
When I mount it second time in the same rack it seems to pull same information
as the first one.
Is there a way around with it. I want it mounted second time but it should not
pull information like I.P, files other info same as first one.
If I have two same type of devices, I want to use them system wide, but each
device should have his own properties(like I.P address, logs, files) , it
should not pull the properties of previous one. How do we go about it in this
scenario ?
Do I define them as
Nexus 3000-1
Nexus 3000-2
under objects ? or is there a way around with it ?
Please enlighten me on this.
