Abstract: A system, method, apparatus, and computer program product for generating a cabling plan for a computing system are disclosed. A method may include accessing an elevation plan defining a respective mount position for each of a set of components of the computing system. The method may also include determining one or more port pairs to be used for interconnecting the plurality of components. The method may further include determining, for each port pair, a cable length to use to connect the port pair. The cable length may be determined based at least in part on mount positions defined by the elevation plan for the two components connected by the port pair. The method may additionally include generating a cabling plan defining the cable length to use to connect each respective port pair.

Abstract: A system, method, apparatus, and computer program product for generating an elevation plan for a computing system are disclosed. A method may include accessing a build specification identifying components to be included in the computing system. The method may also include accessing a set of component placement rules defining rules for placing components within a rack. The method may further include generating an elevation plan defining a respective mount position for each of a subset of the components within one or more racks based on the set of component placement rules.

Abstract: A system, method, apparatus, and computer program product for validating a user modification to an elevation plan for a computing system are disclosed. A method may include causing display of a user interface including a representation of at least a portion of the elevation plan. The user interface may be configured to enable user modification of the elevation plan. The method may further include receiving an indication of a mount position for a component. The method may additionally include validating that the component is mountable in the mount position. The method may also include updating the elevation plan to include the component in the mount position in response to validation that the component is mountable in the mount position.

Abstract: A method for generating a power cabling plan may include accessing a build plan. The build plan may identify a set of power drawing components and a set of PDUs. Each PDU may include at least one circuit. The method may further include iteratively assigning each of the power drawing components to at least one circuit based on an existing power load assigned to each circuit. The method may additionally include reassigning at least one power drawing component between circuits in a circuit pair if a difference in assigned power loads between circuits in any circuit pair is reducible. The method may also include generating a power cabling plan defining at least one assigned PDU port for each power drawing component. Each assigned PDU port may correspond to a circuit to which the power drawing component has been assigned.
