Description
During the Upgrade, Removal and Installation it is very important to have a centralized database for the data on hardware (HW) components, such as, locations, system names, cable numbers, hostnames, MAC addresses and relations between various HW components and several user groups. The centralized database is also used for HW planning and life cycle management, and tracks the history of every part which is helpful for Commissioning. At PSI we are using such a database with a Web-interface called Inventory. The goal of the HW-database is to be the central entry point for different User groups, technicians, scientists and people of interest. Ease of handling supports users and integrators in their daily work. This PSI made Inventory is a cheap Solution, with high functionality and efficient adaptability with new functions.
