Create physical groups through CSV file
Use the import feature to create physical groups and add devices to rack slots in Power Manager by importing new or existing
physical group details through a CSV file, instead of manually creating the physical groups with hierarchies.
About this task
Consider the following points before creating and importing the CSV file:
● Only Administrators can import the CSV files.
● The script checks if the devices are discovered in OpenManage Enterprise.
● Ensure that the physical group you are creating adheres to the hierarchy as follows:
Table 20. Supported hierarchy format
Physical group Supported hierarchies

● When creating a rack in physical group, ensure that you provide the rack name, power capacity, and space capacity.
● Each physical group and their siblings in a physical group hierarchy are identified by a unique name.
