Hmm? Not follow here. You still can use the exact values you want,
however, the service will not check them against a whitelist, that's
all.
Systemd integration was just one part, the other part was I was going to
contact Karel since I had noticed he has been gradually working on
bringing consistency in terminal colorized output in commands the
core/baseOS so I wanted to see if we could not come up with terminal
color system theme ( which basically administrators have been trying to
do and fail miserable in doing so based on the machine staging
environment ) and work on integrating that.
Something like
DEPLOYMENT=Development could be associated with green terminal colour theme
DEPLOYMENT=Integration could be associated with yellow terminal colour theme
DEPLOYMENT=Staging could be associated with orange terminal colour theme
DEPLOYMENT=Production could be associated with red terminal colour theme
Then David had suggested to extend this further with in systemd by
adding ConditionDeployment= which is a valid request from my point ( we
disable for example various servers depending on which staging
environments they are in )
I had already submitted new patch with deployment "[PATCH] Add
DEPLOYMENT to hostnamectl" which Zbyszek had suggested and you agreed to
and FYI this has nothing to with trying to standardize anything it's
about bringing consistency in the system for machines in certain
deployment stages so administrators/developers will immediately identify
in which stage the environment they are working in, is at.
