NAME
----
cdist - Configuration management


SYNOPSIS
--------
cdist [-h] [-b] [-c CDIST_HOME] [-d] [-i MANIFEST] [-p] [-s] [-V] [host [host ...]]


DESCRIPTION
-----------
cdist is the frontend executable to the cdist configuration management.


OPTIONS
-------
-h, --help::
   Show the help screen

-d, --debug::
   Enable debug output

-p, --parallel::
   Parallelise backup processes

-V, --version::
   Show version and exit


EXAMPLES
--------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Configure ikq05.ethz.ch with debug enabled
cdist -d ikq05.ethz.ch

__motd
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In both cases, cdist-type-emulator is called instead of a real type.
In the first case, the object id "/tmp/linetest" is recorded and the
parameter "line" stored with the content "test".

In the second case, __motd must be decleared as a singleton, as the
object id is missing.
