cdist-type__hosts(7)
====================
NAME
----
cdist-type__hosts - manage entries in /etc/hosts
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Add or remove entries from */etc/hosts* file.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
state
If state is ``present``, make *object_id* resolve to *ip*. If
state is ``absent``, *object_id* will no longer resolve via
*/etc/hosts*, if it was previously configured with this type.
Manually inserted entries are unaffected.
ip
IP address, to which hostname (=\ *object_id*) must resolve. If
state is ``present``, this parameter is mandatory, if state is
``absent``, this parameter is silently ignored.
alias
An alias for the hostname.
This parameter can be specified multiple times (once per alias).
EXAMPLES
--------
.. code-block:: sh
# Now `funny' resolves to 192.168.1.76,
__hosts funny --ip 192.168.1.76
# and `happy' no longer resolve via /etc/hosts if it was
# previously configured via __hosts.
__hosts happy --state absent
__hosts srv1.example.com --ip 192.168.0.42 --alias srv1
