Hi, I set the whole thing up and got not the expected results. The thing is, that:
"It’s important to mention here that you will only get exported resources from hosts whose configurations have been compiled. If hostB exports a resource but hostB has never connected to the server, then no host will get that exported resource." That means that the nodes must be already installed in order to use the information. I need this information mainly from the nodes that are not existant yet. I want to boot them using PXE and run the whole installation procedure afterwards. I want to describe the nodes in a nodes.pp and from there setup DHCP and PXE for them. Any other hints?
