Although that snippet would still use exported resources, which fp.o
currently does not have in place (i believe?), a snippet for just this
would probably look like:
node 'foo' {
@@host { "$hostname":
ipaddress => "$ipaddress", # This can also be $ipaddress_eth0 or
whatnot, see `facter`
host_aliases => "$fqdn",
tag => "dns_does_not_always_work"
}
}
node 'log01' {
Host <<| tag == "dns_does_not_always_work" |>>
}
