<p>The following template automatically generates a MOTD (message of the
day) file that describes the system in terms of its Bcfg2 metadata
and probe responses. It conditionally displays groups, categories,
and probe responses, if there exists any data for them.</p>

<p>This template gets the hostname, groups membership of the host, categories
of the host (if any), and result of probes on the host (if any). The
template formats this in with a header and footer that makes it visually
more appealing.</p>

<p>One way to make this even more useful, is to only include the result of
certain probes. It would also be a nice feature to be able to include
customer messages on a host or group level.</p>
