							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								in place, /etc/DO-NOT-CHANGE and /root/CDIST-ENABLED-HOST, which
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								both are used to warn other sysadmins that this system is managed
							 | 
						
					
						
							| 
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
								
							 | 
							
							
								by configuration management and manual changes may get overwritten.
