Hi, What I need is not something random. I need that machines from group A will have class A defined and the other group will have another group defined. I can't do list of hosts for each group because this is dynamic. machines come and go.
I thought of something like checking if the number part of the machine name ( for example lnx4 ) is odd or even and from this define class ( reminder - I need to divide the compute farm to 2 ) but maybe you have better idea.
