== Rules ==
 On Infrastructure
 -----------------
 There is one system, not a collection of systems.
 The desired state of the system should be a known quantity.
 The "known quantity" must be machine parseable.
 The actual state of the system must self-correct to the desired state.
 The only authoritative source for the actual state of the system is the system.
 The entire system must be deployable using source media and text files.

Intro

TCL-Expect scripts are an amazingly easy way to script out laborious tasks in the shell when you need to be interactive with the console. Think of them as a "macro" or way to programmaticly step through a process you would run by hand. They are similar to shell scripts but utilize the .tcl extension and a different #! call.

Setup Your Script

The first step, similar to writing a bash script, is to tell the script what it's executing under. For expect we use the following:

#!/usr/bin/expect
