I'll just additionally mention that this is easily done in Nova using
measurements promises since I'm doing exactly this and several other
things (total memory, cpu speed, etc.):

measurements:

    linux::

            "/proc/cpuinfo"

                      handle => "linux_cpu_count",
                 stream_type => "file",
                   data_type => "counter",
                history_type => "scalar",
                       units => "CPUs",
                 match_value => extract_line_value("processor.*",
"processor\s+:\s+(\d+)");

    solaris::

            "/usr/sbin/psrinfo -v"

                      handle => "sunos_cpu_count",
                 stream_type => "pipe",
                   data_type => "counter",
                history_type => "scalar",
                       units => "CPUs",
                 match_value => extract_line_value("Status.*",
"processor\s+(\d+).*");

Nakarin,

Of course, I can make it even shorter and safer:

 
vars:
   linux::
       "ncpu"          string  => execresult("/bin/grep -c ^processor
/proc/cpuinfo", "noshell");

   freebsd::
       "ncpu"          string  => execresult("/sbin/sysctl -n
hw.ncpu", "noshell");



It just seems to be a good coin to have right inside in the Cfengine
and omit external commands.
