Is it possible to execute a rundeck job on some host, which is entered via an option instead of specifying a predefined node? So far I only found that you have to specify a node which represents a known predetermined host.
I have two default servers which can be configured as nodes, but when developing, I would like to create a copy of such a server, but I don't want to add a node for such a machine every time I need one, as it can be deleted after it is no longer needed.
You need a model source to connect Rundeck to remote nodes, so, in short: you need to add the nodes. Alternatively: you can use rundeck locally and execute commands from script steps that connect to the "non-defined" nodes, like this.
