Hello,
I was thinking about what a bear it will be to have to specify each of my compute node systems in my clusters individually.
I was thinking about syntax such as the following that would create an equipment object for each of 256 hosts named l001 through l256.
(machine-cluster "LosLobos" linux-host (user "download") (disks (disk "/dev/sda1" 80 95)) (machinerange "l001-l256"))
What do y'all think? Is there a better way to do this? Something like this would reduce the size of my shop's config file a couple orders of magnitude - in turn, I'd screw things up accordingly less often :)
