Hello Dean,
Thought about that, but would miss the integration. And would in fact mean,
that we have to keep a double administration (partly).
Example:
- Move server A in rack B on 11 -> Rack C on level 12
- Move switch C in rack B on 23 -> Rack B on level 11
- Now we have two u on level 23 + 24
- Place new 2u heigth server on 23 + 24
- Connect ports , etc.
These are all actions to do in "real life" AND in racktables.
So seems logical to set these actions as "todo" in racktables (this could
perhaps be a tag to the objects to move)
If there would be a way to (re)order these in a list (first todo, second, etc.)
Then filtering for objects with this tag would give the todolist. To (un)check
when working in datacentre.
Using "object logs" would give place to add description of action (or in field
comment).
Regards, Eef
