cds.conf parameters

all,

I have multiple servers running xen sessions and am finding that it
starts to get confusing when remembering the dns (the dns name is
something similar to xen1, xen2...xen32) name for each of the xen
sessions. Since I am using the same .conf file for each of the servers,
I wanted to know if there is a way I can add a value to the % vmid in
the cds.conf

The line right now is: name = "xen%d" % vmid and what I want to do is to
add a value to that line only.
Something like: name = "xen%d" % vmid+20.

Possible?

Trying to keep this simple from a admin viewpoint.

You might need to put the vmid+20 in brackets but yes,that will work.

Config files are basically Python scripts, so you can just use Python syntax
and Python functions and things should Just Work.

name = "xen%d" % (vmid+20)

Will do the trick.
