larsks commented 3 years ago

We need to select an inventory management solution:

If we want to look at Netbox it looks like there is a community maintained docker image at https://hub.docker.com/r/netboxcommunity/netbox

Interesting article on using Netbox as the source for network device configuration here: https://blogs.cisco.com/developer/source-of-truth-cleur

I've set up a netbox instance in openshift at https://netbox-moc-ops.apps.cnv.massopen.cloud/ and populated it with a few devices from the openshift and openstack clusters. The password for the admin user is in bitwarden.

Cool- thanks!

Another option for asset tracking is GLPI. I've set up a GLPI demo (but I have not populated it with any data yet) at https://glpi-moc-ops.apps.cnv.massopen.cloud/. The password for the glpi user is in bitwarden.

Ralph looks interesting and has a live demo (https://ralph-demo.allegro.tech/, login ralph/ralph).

...and as we mentioned on #coredev earlier today, Snipe-IT is open source and has both self-hosted and vendor-hosted options.

I bumped this up the backlog so we consider it for inclusion in the next sprint.

Out of all the options I like netbox the best and would vote for that.

Other options I looked at:

  1. Ralph 3: This came close to netbox as it had everything and is built on django/python but it didn't have mechanism to track cables between hosts.
  2. snipeit: seemed more for asset tracking and office stuff.
  3. opendcim: looks like it has most features, but the ui is too old and clunky.
  4. glpi: same as opendcim. I think @msd and I did spend some creating stuff on it together few months ago.
