All, I have this: # # External configuration data. # $config = extlookup("platform_config", extlookup("platform_config", extlookup("platform_config", extlookup("platform_config", "Unknown", "config/${ss_fac}/${ss_env}/${ss_clu}/${fqdn}/platform"), "config/${ss_fac}/${ss_env}/${ss_clu}/platform"), "config/${ss_fac}/${ss_env}/platform"), "config/${ss_fac}/platform") ... which is kinda ugly. Is there a way to wrap this up in a defintion and return the value from the definition? As far as I know, definitions can''t return values.
