hi, 

we're currently evaluating hiera to get rid of hordes of global variables 
and prepare our manifests for next iteration of puppet.
now, we have some variables, used by classes, which set properties based on 
facts, ie. we set approperiate interface address which should be used on 
monitoring server, ie:

$nagiosip = $ipaddress_bond0_1234

now, we can convert it to:

class { "nagios::host": ip => $ipaddress_bond0_1234 }

but... we'll need to include this on every single node (now we use node 
inheritance and just set $nagiosip on top node level for group of hosts 
that share the same vlan). 

is it possible to achieve the same thing with hiera (then we could just set 
default parameter of nagios::host class to hiera)? we're currently 
evaluating yaml backend, puppet backend is not as easy to understand to me 
and i'm not sure if we can mix both (ie. define separate calling_modules 
and search hierarchies for both).
