Description

Our current demo data (in demo-data.ldif) contains 8 servers. However, many things about them are unlike real servers when added to Rudder via an inventory. We should improve on this to have a more realistic demo :

  1. Use UUIDs as UUIDs, not strings (srv1, srv2, etc)
  2. Use full hostnames, as returned by Fusion Inventory
  3. They don't have any hardware or software

Also, we could add some groups, Policy Instances and even Configuration Rules to the demo data, to illustrate the purpose of the application :

  1. Create a dynamic group of all Windows servers, all Debian servers, all servers...
  2. Create a sample PI with NTP and time zone configuration (using public NTP servers at ntp.org)
  3. Apply the PI to a the "all" group via an aptly named CR
  4. Have nice long descriptions everywhere, illustrating the purpose of each item

Perhaps we could use data from our labo ? (one debian 32bit, one fedora, etc) ?

In Rudder 3.0, we removed complettly demo datas.

We also added in release 2.10 and up several meaningful default groups, directive and rule, so that Rudder is now immediatly usable (of course, with an motd directive only ;)
