As Frank just mentioned, you set at udb.pm (that you copy from the
udb.example.pm template):

   $mdb::machine_database{'discover'} = $udb_generic;

Now you need to add the several different options regarding that
machine. You use then the set_option command there.

There is a short text at the end of

http://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Tutorial_for_New_Users

showing how to modify the options for a particular user on Ranger.
You may use it as a model when setting it up for your machine.


Do I actually have to

No. You can look there for examples on how the options are set for
several different machines. It is a database file that could be very
helpful.

Cheers... Bruno.
