I have a simple setup where all servers (<30) are on the same LAN. The policies include heartbeat promise which always evaluates to true, this promise runs a heartbeat script which updates a data file per server on a common NFS share. By changing the heartbeat script (it's distributed using cfengine) I can leave all kinds of information per server on the common NFS share and then query these files for the information I need. Currently, I only use this to check that cfengine in fact is running on all servers I expect it to run on.
This setup is very crude, requires access to a writable NFS share and does not scale well, but it works for me. - Erlend On 29 December 2010 20:25, Aleksey Tsalolikhin <atsaloli.t...@gmail.com>wrote: > Here's a post on how to generate a list of all your current servers > using Cfengine, in order to run a one-time command on them (for > example to gather data): http://silverwraith.com/blog/?p=72 > > How would we do this in Cfengine? > > It depends on where we have a list of all the servers; or even if we > do.
