You need to use canonify, and then use the variable in a class expression. Canonify ensures that the string only has characters that are valid in class names. Using your example: bunde agent my_app { vars: "server_type" string => (read from file and it can be: db_server, app_server, dns_server, etc.); "c_server_type" string => canonify("${server_type}"); classes: "${c_server_type}" expression => "any"; files: db_server:: "XXXXXXX" app_server:: "XXXXXXX" dns_server:: "XXXXXXX" etc.. } _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
