The cfengine master server is being configured on:
local_hostname
The wizard then asks if you would like to additionally configure managed clients immediately
after configuring the server. For this example, answer no. Managed clients will be added later.
You can optionally specify additional remote clients to manage at this
time. If you are running in an HA environment, you do not need to specify the
cluster members.
Would you like to manage clients? [N]: n
The wizard proceeds to configure the system as a master server:

When the configuration is completed, the wizard displays the following summary screens which
direct the administrator to the main policy file, /var/opt/dsau/cfengine_master/inputs/
cf.main, and the recorded answer file for this run of the wizard.
The Configuration Synchronization Wizard has completed the
configuration of cfengine:
- The master configuration description template is here:
</csync/dsau/cfengine_master/inputs/cf.main>
This default template has examples of typical configuration
synchronization actions performed in a cluster. For example,
synchronizing critical files such as /etc/hosts, package
scripts, etc.
All the actions in the template are disabled by default
(commented out). Uncomment the lines corresponding to the desired
synchronization actions for the cluster. See the cfengine
reference documentation for a description of additional cfengine
features: /opt/dsau/doc/cfengine/
