Multiple instances of configuration in DSC

DSC
1

Hi,

I was wondering if the following scenario is supported:

We currently run multiple instances of the same applications on our servers. We’ve created a DSC configuration that specifies what our application needs so we can quicly set up an environment. Is it possible to compile this configuration multiple times with different parameters and push it to the target nodes?

Many thanks in advance

Sure. You’d normally use a configuration data block to provide the per-node information, and when you run the configuration it generates a MOF per node. Well-covered in “The DSC Book” on Leanpub, if you’re interested.
