Ambit, at its simplest, uses Bash Brace Expansion to expand and list
|
|
hostnames OR commands. First and foremost Ambit is meant to be a general
|
|
purpose hostlist enumerator to be used by other applications or scripts.
|
|
Additionally Ambit can be used to manage User Specific as well as
|
|
System-Wide HostGroups. It can also be used to query Network HostGroups.
|
|
Finally, Ambit is able to detect when it is expanding a command (rather than
|
|
a host list), allowing for the command to be expanded and executed
|
|
synchronously. This means Ambit can expand and run just about anything on
|
|
the command line and usually works in places where Bash Brace Expansion
|
|
might fail.
