Fan Type
Similar to a Nautobot Device Type, a Fan Type represents a discrete model of a cooling fan, as defined by the Manufacturer, Name, and Part Number.
Fan Types are instantiated as Fans installed within Devices, or as available spares in a Location.
For example, you may define a Fan Type for a HPE Standard 1U Fan, part number P54697-B21.
Multiple instances of the Fan Type, named fan_0
, fan_1
, etc., can then be created as Fans installed in a particular Device.
