Hardware vCommunity is a open-source community project that uses Dell iDRAC Redfish API to group your physical servers under a datacenter name provided by user. You don't need to create multiple accounts for your servers to have an integration. 

Management Pack supports Configuration Files that can have multiple FQDN/IP addresses and it automatically discovers these servers then creating new objects.
