1. Client Metadata
Clients are differentiated in terms of several types of
metadata. These types (from least to most specific) are:
- image : the binary compatibility domain of the machine (like
debian-3.1 or redhat-7.3)
- classes : a host can belong to multiple classes. Classes are used to
derive the set of software to install on a particular client.
- bundles: bundles are a sets of related bits of
configuration. Generally, each bundle provides some piece of
discrete functionality.
- attributes : attributes can be used to further differentiate
bundles, or client configurations and are bundle scoped. A host
may have the webserver.ssl attribute if it is supposed to provide
ssl/https services in addition to normal port 80 http service.
- hostname : this is kind of obvious
