Environment

  • NetBox version: 2.6.1

Proposed Functionality

As a follow-up to issue #1311 where things were becoming a bit vague I'd like to request the following feature.

I would very much like to have RU reservations count against utilization.

Use Case

Having this feature in NetBox gives a user the ability to:

  • Make a rack appear as 100% utilized even if this only administratively. Think of use cases where a rack is limited by the maximum weight or power capacity before all the RUs are actually used.
  • Directly see from the rack overview page how much of a rack is utilized. Even if part of that utilization is a reservation.
