4.9. Batch editing¶
Do you want to apply a change to a lot of cobbler objects at once?
Try using xargs combined with cobbler list
commands, such as:
cobbler profile list | xargs -n1 --replace cobbler profile edit --virt-bridge=xenbr1 --name={}
The above example sets the virtual bridge used by every cobbler profile to ‘xenbr1’.
You can filter the profile list by sticking a grep
commmand in there as a pipe before the xargs.
