We've got a hostgroup called "debian servers" and any server in this list automatically has the version checked to make sure there's no weird upgrades going on etc. It also means that when "Lenny" reaches stable, we only need to change one config file and it immediately provides us with a report on which servers require an upgrade. The script at the moment is configured to be OK if the /etc/debian_version contains the string "4.0", warn on "3.1" and error on everything else. This makes upgrading much much easier!
