Hello All,
I just joined this group and am not sure this question has been
answered before.
How do you apply configuration changes to a set of hosts?
I know this works, but was looking for a more elegant method.
node host1,host2,host3{
include xxxx.....
}
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dan, Thanks for the pointers. Coincidentally, I stumbled upon "foreman" last night while googling for "external nodes configuration".

Just an update. I could get foreman and external nodes config working. It is much more fun now. I am planning to enable RRDgraph reports and much more. Will keep you guys posted.
