SimEngine

SimEngine is a simulation platform that can model high-availability hardware systems. The project itself supports web-based interface as well as a set of command line tools. SimEngine users can trigger power events through the dashboard or script commands to simulate certain conditions. The platform was developed with open-source community in mind and it is capable of modelling any high-availability setup meaning it can be potentially used by anyone specializing in high-availability industry.

SimEngine features include:

System modelling & power connections (PDU, UPS, Servers & VM control)
Power events (wallpower, assets' states, UPS battery etc)
IPMI/BMC interface and SNMP simulation (load, power etc.)
Thermal simulation (AC & Ambient, temperature sensors)
storcli64 simulation (Drive/CacheVault failure, temperature behaviour etc.)

Full project documentation is hosted on readthedocs
