< p > While executing, cdist stores data to local cache. Currently this feature is
one way only. That means that cdist does not use stored data for future runs.
Anyway, those data can be used for debugging cdist, debugging types and
debugging after host configuration fails.< / p >
< p > Local cache is saved under $HOME/.cdist/cache directory, one directory entry
for each host. Subdirectory path is specified by
< strong > -C/--cache-path-pattern< / strong > option, < strong > cache_path_pattern< / strong >
configuration option or by using < strong > CDIST_CACHE_PATH_PATTERN< / strong >
environment variable.< / p >

section in cdist man page.< / p >
