Hi Paul,
Thanks for the example. So, your script accepts input for things like OS
version/environment/CPU and then reads a CSV which contains things like the
hostname/IP/location/etc? Are you executing separate hammer commands to
retrieve the ID of some properties (like location, compute resource ID,
etc)?
If you could share a stripped down/minimalist version of your script, I
think everyone would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
Josh
