Machine Profile Options

There is a set of options related to the handling of the machine profile, in particular options related to its download and to its caching on the machine.

Main options that can be tweak are:

  • Download URL: this is the URL where profiles are located. The profile name, derived from the profile template (the template declared as an object template), is appended to this URL. The download URL can be defined with variable QUATTOR_PROFILE_URL.
  • Cached profile permission: configuration profile is cached on the machine and may contain sensitive information like password hashes. By default it is readable only by root. This may be changed by defining variable CCM_PROFILE_WORLD_READABLE to true. Be sure to understand the security risk associated with this.
