# Data centers

Data centers management in GLPI, more precisely management of servers rooms and racks, allows to:

* Create an inventory of data centers, rooms and racks of the organization;
* Include data centers in GLPI financial management;
* Use other modules for data centers management, in particular `Assets` module which provides a detailed graphical representation of racks.

## Data center

Data center in itself is a very simple object, with a name and a location, and allows only to group server rooms.

## Impact Analysis

Impact analysis enables an infrastructure diagram to be drawn up, showing the dependencies and impacts in the event of equipment loss. This can be saved and exported.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.glpi-project.org/glpi-12/management/data-centers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
