Thanks, but that doesn't help much with my question since I haven't used 
RHN either.  I'd like to have some comprehensive 
inventory/monitoring/deployment tool but it has to work across different 
platforms.  Ocsinventory-ng works for computer hardware/software 
inventory and has some (not very usable) deployment features,  OpenNMS 
can monitor about anything, Racktables can show layouts and store 
configurations, but each of these have separate databases and interfaces 
with big conceptual differences.  Is there anything that combines the 
operations that people actually have to do to mange data centers in one 
(preferably free) tool?
