Hi Diego,
If you look at the output, you can see that this isn't the case; specifically
here:
I stop the service, then run cf-agent:
ochus:/srv/sysconf# /etc/
We've already built an external inventory system that does this (e.g. It has
a notion of "role" like "oracle" -- and with even more granularity,
"oracle-slave" or "oracle-master", etc.). While seeing this stuff added to

This is something that will come in Nova 2. It is not as easy to answer as you

The simplest way to approach this is to measure each system and observe the
probabilities.

Hi all,
As we've been moving forward with our Nova implementation and developing
an appropriate procedure for getting approval to make changes to our
Cfengine policy, I've realized that it would be incredibly important to
know which systems will be affected by a policy change. So, given a

D'oh - found it; very close to the right answer! BerkeleyDB header files were
the wrong version for the installed libraries. Quite why SLES didn't complain
about that I have no idea...
