Dear cfengineers,
I have used cfengine for a while to keep configs in sync on my cluster.
The issue now is that I installed (using FAI) few new nodes. Of cause
files on them have newer ctime/mtime. I need to have them all copied
once (ie be forced to have type=md5sum or just force=true).
In my cfengine config in most of the cases I use default type (ie
omitting it) while in some I use mtime (for consequtive editing), so I
can't simply redefine DefaultCopyType for those new hosts to be md5sum.
Since the only way seems to be to define force=true for ALL of the files
in copy section there is a question:
Is there a way to define options globally for the whole section (ie
copy, or per class in a section) instead of per line? Artificially
it can be done by creating a variable DOFORCE and adding explicitly
force=$(DOFORCE) to every line, but I think it is somewhat ad hoc -- may
be there is better way?
Thank you in advance for ideas.
