I don't know about the examples, but having your copy body use two
servers works just fine in my experience. Just do something like this:
vars:
"servers"
comment => "Location unknown, just set both policy hosts",
slist => { "host1.foo.net","host2.foo.net" };
files:
"/var/cfengine/inputs"
copy_from =>
umycopy("${policyrepo}","@(servers)"),
other stuff;
body copy_from umycopy(from,phosts) {
source => "${from}";
servers => { @(phosts) };
compare => "digest";
verify => "true";
purge => "true";
trustkey => "true";
}
