In cobbler 2.6.5, Management Classses have some more options than listed in the docs:
http://www.cobblerd.org/manuals/2.6.0/3/1/6_-_Management_Classes.html
namely:
class name is definition? parameter/variables
Are these used at all?
I'm curious about the possibility of setting ks_meta variables through management class membership. I currently pass a "type=" ks_meta with values like "laptop","desk","server" to indicate the type of machine it is. I'm starting to look at ansible and it would be nice to have host groups based on the "type". I don't want a proliferation of profiles for each of the types, so I hit on mgmt-class which ansible will group by. It would be nice if membership in the class would also then handle passing the type= ks_meta.
Thoughts?
