Hello all,
I have the following :
bundle agent master
{
vars:
"info_provider[gatherer1]" slist => { "provider1", "provider2",
"provider3" };
"info_provider[gatherer2]" slist => { "provider4", "provider5",
"provider6" };
"info_gatherers" slist => getindices("info_provider");
methods:
"gathering" usebundle =>
do_gather("$(info_gatherers)","@(info_provider[$(info_gatherers)])");
reports:
someserverclass::
"The client list for server $(info_gatherers) are
$(info_provider[$(info_gatherers)])";
}
bundle agent do_gather(server,client_list)
{
files:
"$(dir.export)"
depth_search => recurse("inf"),
file_select => include(".*"),
action => if_elapsed("60"),
ifvarclass => $(server),
copy_from => rcp("$(dir.export)", "$(client_list)");
}
I am basically trying to provide to the target bundle(do_gather) a server name
and a list of client system to contact. The $(info_gatherers) properly iterate
but the second parameter @(info_provider[$(info_gatherers)]) does not convert
to the list of client associated with the server being iterated.
I guess I am asking what is it that I do not understand since to me the
@(info_provider[$(info_gatherers)]) expression should return the list of client
system associated with the current value of the iteration over the
$(info_gatherers) list.
Thanks,
p.s. I will be happy with a different approach... right now I have coded the
iteration itself... lets say not elegant. Basically the goal is to specify a
list of gatherer each having an associated list list of provider... the number
of gatherer and provider will vary frequently over time hence my hope to have
it define in vars!!!!
Marco
