+1 I have found myself tending toward that as well. loopx, you may want to look at adding another attribute to that promise. I have a vague recollection of a similar discussion on the list. Basically the promisee has not promised anything, so its ok. If you add a process_count attribute to that promise body I think you might start seeing the behaviour you were expecting or looking for. That being said, I agree with Ted. I try to raise context classes that are descriptive of the action that's needed and then the policy tends to be a little more readable. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
