Forum: CFEngine Help Subject: Re: Explanation for 3x iteration in a bundle Author: frans Link to topic: https://cfengine.com/forum/read.php?3,24402,24406#msg-24406
I'm familiar with normal ordering and figured that cf-agent was sidestepping the vars: promise again as it had already evaluated it. What would be helpful is to see a bundle where cf-agent does make changes to a system on its second or third traversal of a bundle based on class changes or the like made in the first execution. As it is I can't think of a way to copy files (via "files:") based on classification set by a command module (or some other later section) in a single bundle and a single execution of cf-agent. As far as I know the command would need to write a token file somewhere that would be interpreted on the next execution of cf-agent. If my systems are being brought to life autonomously, and if their splay time is largish, final convergence could be slow. This may be a necessary limitation, I'm just curious how one might get something done in the second or third run. Thanks as always for your ready replies. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
