NAME

 | 
						|
cdist - Configuration management system
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
Cdist allows you to centrally define a configurations for
 | 
						|
UNIX systems and apply them. Cdist generally uses the push
 | 
						|
approach (a server pushes out the configuration to the clients),
 | 
						|
but can also be used the pull way (see cdist-push-pull(7)).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Cdist-deploy-to(1) is the main command to be used to deploy
 | 
						|
configurations to a host.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The mapping of configurations to hosts is defined
 | 
						|
in so called manifests, which are written in shell
 | 
						|
script language (see cdist-manifest(7)).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Logical units of files and directives are called "types" in cdist jargon
 | 
						|
(see cdist-types(7)). Cdist ships with some types, which you can change
 | 
						|
or create new ones or even submit your types for inclusion into mainstream
 | 
						|
(see cdist-type-inclusion(7)).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The fastest way to get a host configured using cdist is probably
 | 
						|
cdist-quickstart(7).
