After retrieving the system name, which others have shown how to do, use 

it as the filename of a file containing the linux guests that should be 

brought up on that system.  Benefits over coding them directly in the 
autolog PROFILE are that you only touch the code once (thus reducing the 

likelyhood of a syntax error terminating the exec), and the PROFILE 
becomes common code across all systems.
