Rack PDU Documentation

Core Web App

It would be great to be able to specify a certain rack item as a PDU and be able to enter the amount of power load it can take and have those automatically add to the total rack power capacity.

With a rack item listed as a PDU, be able to assign other rack items such as servers, switches, etc to be drawing power from s specific PDU.

A step further of being able to specify the VA capacity of a UPS PDU and looking at the wattage of the devices assigned to draw power from it, give a rough estimate of time the UPS can provide battery power to those devices. I can understand why Hudu may want to avoid doing something like this one though.

    Would also be great to be able to specify the number of Ports on a PDU and identify what asset each port is connected to.

    I would love this, even if they aren't displayed vertically on a rack diagram. However please keep in mind many PDUs are racked in a specific U in a rack, but rather on the left or right sides.
