[sisuite-users] Grouped Machines

[Bryan Washer]

Looking for some opinions

I have made a modification to the imaging scripts that looks at the name
of the script which installed the bare machine and based on the name of
the script runs other scripts

I did this so I could dynamically determine what image I wanted to put
on a machine from a pxelinux boot menu and then based on the image I
selected it would run specific scripts.

This is more of a dynamic setup of grouped machines than the grouping
you would do like if you were in a data center...

Would anyone be interested in this...or do you think this is just
something that we use as a one off?

Bryan

Example: if I select a workstation image ..it sets the setup script as
workstation.model that is a link to the master script.  Then while the
script is running after the base image it runs all scripts that start
with a ##workstation.something (##{base of scriptname}.anything) in the
scripts directory.
