For those interested, I've opened a feature request for supporting lists with the "hostgroups" argument to nagios_host: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4020 There is also a possibility that this feature could be useful with other nagios resource values. If you think of any other that you'd like to see support lists of strings, then please comment on this feature request. >> Interesting.

Does anyone see an interest in making puppet able to collect values into a list from arbitrary sub-scopes, other than for implementing host-based nagios configuration? -- Gabriel Filion -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
