DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Cdist is a very simple, elegant, cleanly designed configuration management
|
|
system. Cdist allows you to centrally define configurations for UNIX systems
|
|
Cdist generally uses the push approach (a server pushes out the
|
|
configuration to the clients), but can also be used the pull way.
|
|
|
|
Cdist-deploy-to is the main command to be used to configure a host.
|
|
|
|
The mapping of configurations to hosts is defined in so called manifests,
|
|
which are written in shell script language.
|
|
|
|
Logical units of functionality are called "types" in cdist jargon. Cdist ships
|
|
with some types, which you can change or create new ones or even submit your
|
|
types for inclusion into cdist.
|
|
|
|
The fastest way to get a host configured using cdist is probably using
|
|
cdist-quickstart.
