web interface to control power rack
This is a simple php script written quickly to match a simple problem:
- be able to control more than one power outlet at a time
- select outlets by name, without knowing on which power rack they are plugged
- configure outlets names in one clic (you have to know the rack/port numbers for this :)
- configure timers (fixed delays corrected by rack to spread the load in case of power surge)
It doesn't:
- prepare coffee while you try to debug
- authorize not authenticate anything
- NO SECURITY lies here: access control is on the server (dont make that thing available from the whole internet)
- NO GARANTEE: we just share this as it could help some
Copy config.sample.php to config.php and edit it to match your config
- $GLOBALS["apcids"] should list your rack(s) names, IP and type
- $GLOBALS["apcsnmp"] should match your SNMP write community
./scripts/list_pdus will list configured power plugs and their outlet's properties
Just go to the url of the scripts, your outlets should list themselves with the names you configured in the racks.
- better notifications by mail
- use a templating system (twig)
- implement a bit more security
