Data Center Management Tools?

[bjarvis]

We use nagios for monitoring software & servers, but I need something to help me track & plan hardware location, electrical capacity and such within my data center. Anyone have ideas or suggestions?

I was merely being snarky because Excel is the wrong answer.

I'm dealing with something similar here at work. We have a project tracking system that ties into several other systems so that we can get on-demand reports of staffing, project status, project cost, etc. over the entire 6K+ engineering teams. Cool, huh? Someone decided that my team doesn't need to be in that tool. That same someone now wants all the numbers (costs, rollups, team assignments), that he told us not to put into the system. Idiot.
