Hi,
Sorry for reviving this old post, but I sure would also like to see this feature implemented.
In my situation, we instead have a bunch of Supermicro Twin-servers which are 4x servers in 2U.
One way to maybe solve this issue could be to add an option to create a "Chassi" in the Object tree and then add the option to add Node(s) to a Chassi.
The Chassi should be able to be assigned to a Rack and specified how many rack-units in size it is.
In that way the Rack-picture would know how many Nodes are assigned to the chassi, its unit-size and rack-location and then the picture could be rendered based on that information.
I've attached a illustration of how a 10-node blade (with one faulty node) could be presented to the end user.
Regards,
