Re: Trying ARK feedback

I'm noticing it's a lot of work for me to get from try-ark to even a single
production host.

I'd like to see a SIMPLE text config file, and perhaps process it with
autogen or perl.

For example:

 HOSTS
	clarence
	slicker
	slimy
	slinger

and then a script can do Something (rsh, ssh, whatever) to see what OS and
version is running on these hosts, which can be used to generate the host
proto-templates (ia32-rhlinux.xml, ia32-rhlinux-6.1.xml).

Even if this script generates a hostsNG file:

 sidai
	glasli1
	ia32-rhlinux
 glasli1
	ia32-rhlinux
		sidai
		glasli1 (or `.'?)
	ia32-rhlinux6.1
		ia32-rhlinux
	ia32-rhlinux6.2
		ia32-rhlinux
	sparc-solaris
	sparc-solaris2.6
	sparcv9-solaris2.6
	std-ia32-rhlinux
	std-sparc-solaris
 hosts
	clarence
		ia32-rhlinux6.1
		std-ia32-rhlinux
	slicker
	slimy
	slinger

This is only partially filled out and I'm SURE it could be organized better,
but I hope you can see where I'm heading.

And the sidai/host/ stuff should be able to be auto-generated today using
the stuff in gen-sidai-hosts.
