Hi there,

is there any internal mechanism in CFengine (v2) to make sure not all hosts of 
a certain class run a certain task at once (because it will take them out of 
service during that time) .

For example we have clusters of hosts performing the same service behind a load 
balancer. Additionally we have a few long-running maintenance or update tasks, 
that take single nodes out of service when they are run. Obvoiusly I need to 
make sure that this never happens on more than a few hosts at the same time.

I would prefer not to limit single hosts to predefined timeslots or dates.

Can i accomplish this without some kind of "lock" on a shared drive ?

May "strategies:"  help me with this?

Best regards,

Andreas Balg
