cdist-manifest(7) ================= Nico Schottelius NAME ---- cdist-manifest - Define types to be used DESCRIPTION ----------- Manifests exist to define which configurations should be applied to a specific host as well as to define which configurations should be applied within a type. Manifests are executed locally and the resulting objects are stored in an internal database. In general, manifests are used to define which types are used depending on given conditions EXAMPLE ------- The initial manifest may for instance contain the following code: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Always create this file, so other sysadmins know cdist is used. __file /etc/cdist-configured --type file case "$__target_host" in my.server.name) __file /root/bin/ --type directory __file /etc/issue.net --type file --source "$__manifest/issue.net ;; esac -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The manifest of the type "nologin" may look like this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- __file /etc/nologin --type file --source "$__type/files/default.nologin" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEE ALSO -------- - cdist-manifest-run(1) - cdist-manifest-run-all(1) - cdist-manifest-run-init(1) - cdist-type(7) COPYING ------- Copyright \(C) 2010-2011 Nico Schottelius.
