With lots of help from Michael Ciavarella I got an initial test setup going. The first thing that became obvious is that there wasn't a straightfoward way to define groups of machines for receiving certain tasks/files.
Looking at the official tutorial at http://www.cfengine.org/manuals/cf3-tutorial.html#Decisions I see that one can do something like: "alt_class" or => { "linux", "solaris", fileexists("/etc/fstab") }; Could one just use fileexists to define classes to target different machine types? For example creating: /cfengine-machine-type-smtp /cfengine-machine-type-web /cfengine-machine-type-db So each type of machine would only have one of the 3 files and then I would use fileexists to define the proper soft class for the machine. Is that a reasonable approach or is there some other better way to have groups of types of machines? _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
