If the extlookup() function supported other than just CSV files now, it would be more attractive. My instance, most of this information has to be derived in the external node classifier, this would entail some sort of periodic extraction to generate the extra data source. Besides, isn't the node classifier intended to provide the driving data (e.g., parameters) for the models? As well as calling out the nodes classes? -Alan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
