... when we completely switch to setup without puppet and DNS

This is what I want to run (after removing "echo")

I would do 'set -x -e' at the top of your file to print the commands you are running and then exit if invtool returns a non-zero return code. I would also suggest that you modify our script to take advantage to some new search features in Inventory. Instead of "/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot type=:cname" try: cname.fqdn=/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot Instead of "/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot- type=:PTR" try: ptr.name=/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot Instead of "/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot- type=:A" try: a.fqdn=/^(bld|tst|try)-linux(32|64)-spot Since you are specifying a search field on a specific searchable type, the 'type=' is implied (note that you can use '=' now instead of '=:'.) Your commands and these alternatives are semantically the *same* -- I've just changed the syntax. Otherwise this looks good.

uberj was kind to delete these. Thanks!
