The /var/lib/cfengine3/masterfiles
contains the component "promises" used to create the final promises file used by cf-agent
, et al. See CFEngine Introduction and System Overview.
The component files are assembled on the cfengine hub using the bash script /usr/local/administration/bin/check_and_install_promises
which firstly invokes m4
to assemble the file and then invokes cf-promises
to sanity-check the result before installing the finished promises file into /var/lib/cfengine3/inputs
from whence it is collected by cf-agent
running on the client hosts.
