Documentation by server is handy, but we've recently been going to "system" documentation. System, defined in this context, as a collection of hardware, software, networking, and configuration to constitute a service.
System documentation could include several servers, for example. So, where to put that documentation to display and update easily?
Idea #1 - Organize systems by asset group. Good idea, but how do I link to the documentation? Asset groups are, today, just groups.
Idea #2 - Organize systems by knowledge base article. Good idea, but its not very efficient to update the data in two places when the data is linked in SQL.
Wishlist 1 - Give static asset groups additional functionality, such as the ability to define bookmarks or links to knowledge base articles.
Wishlist 2 - Retool Documentation so anything stored at the asset group level shows up in the Docs tab for that server.
Thanks team!
