Some _possible_ ones that come to mind, although this seems to be something that would be stored in a CMDB (which sounds like cobbler could potentially be used for that). Console information is important, but this may not be the right place to store it.
system_region (US, EU, FE)
system_location (NY, LON, CHI)
system_datacenter (DC1, DC2)
system_owner (chris)
system_description (HP DL360 G5)
console_host (con01)
console_speed (115200)
console_port (ttyS0)
I'll happily collate the responses and try to get an agreed list
