User story #3112
Updated by François ARMAND almost 10 years ago
We should be able to use the informations from the inventories in the Directives. This is not the case now, then we have no way to make a symlink from /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-number-of-kernel, for example.
In the inventory, we have informations like:
* OS name
* RAM Memory
* Kernel Version
A method like ${rudder_variables.kernel-version} which return the kernel version of the node would be very helpfull.
We have two main problematic to care of:
- how to use such properties in techniques (and ncf-builder, see #5225 and #5449 for what was the problem with environment variables),
- how do we handle multi-valued properties such that reporting style works as expected.
