We're running cfengine here at AMD to maintain about 10,000 systems.
Until recently we've been running cfagent only once - during
installation - to configure the system. We're now trying to make the
next step of running cfexecd on systems to maintain configuration.
Only problem is that apparently the "schedule" parameter is being very
strange.
I want cfagent to run at 7am every morning. So I have this statement in
my control section:
schedule = ( Hr07 Min00_05 )
With the presumption that cfagent ANDs the time classes together (the
docs are very very tight-lipped about how to specify time classes).
What this ended up doing, however, was to make cfagent run at the top of
the hour, every hour, and continuously for an hour (over and over and
over again) during the 7:00 hour. So apparently the time classes are
ORed, and cfagent doesn't seem smart enough to know to only run once
during a particular time period.
How do I tell cfengine to run *ONCE* at 7am, and only *ONCE* per day?
