Excellent! :)
Here is my solution until -s is implemented/fixed, it's not perfect and could
certainly be done any number of other ways.
Self contained, should be able to just run it with the -f option to runagent.
Populate the file /tmp/cfrun_host_list with a single host per line, you could
get fancy about how you generate this file if you have an inventory system or
LDAP or whatever but either way it works as expected when the file has valid
host names.
body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "g" };
version => "1.0";
}
bundle common g
{
vars:
policyhost::
"runagent_host_list" slist => {
readstringlist("/tmp/cfrun_host_list","#.*","[\n]",3000,10000) };
classes:
policyhost::
"runagent_hosts" expression => isvariable("runagent_host_list");
}
body runagent control
{
max_children => '50';
background_children => "true";
runagent_hosts::
hosts => { @{g.runagent_host_list} };
}
