Configuring hosts with data from other hosts
...l example: setting restrict lines in ntp.conf to allow a
monitoring host to query ntpd on remote hosts.
So if the monitoring host boots with IP 10.2.2.3 (which may change
regularly), and it knows its the monitor host (via some customer
facter plugins), I want some global variable to be available
($monitor_host_ipaddress, type of thing) which could be used in
tempaltes etc for all other hosts.
Exported resources seems close to what I want, but I dont want to
export a file, and copy it to other machines. I want to use
variables.
Or do I have to copy the IP address of the monitor host to each
machine, via an export...
