Greetings,
According to docs [1] Foreman have a very complex hierarchy of global
parameters:
- Globally defined parameters
- Organization-level parameters
- Location-level parameters
- Domain-level parameters
- Operating system-level parameters
- Host group-level parameters
- Host parameters
So I'm curious: is there any way to override parameterized class variables
on levels that was different from Host and Host group? That will be very
helpful for large setups.
Thanks!

Hello
yes there is a way, go to edit form of the smart class parameter and at the
bottom click Add Matcher-Value. Fields for new value will be appended. You can
specify a matcher (a condition under which a value will be used) and a value.
See [2] for more details. Also note that smart variables (not smart class
parameters) are something else that is more similar to global parameters but
supports types, validations etc.

Hope this helps

Do you mean add an override from organization/location etc. edit form?
You can override a smart class parameter/smart variable only from
host/hostgroup or the puppetclass itself.
Organization, location and the rest of the list are not connected to a
puppetclass or environment
so there is no list we can show of what is available to override but you
can override according to what organization/location/domain… the host is
connected to as Marek explained.

Exactly. Matchers isn't so user-friendly as simple overriding forms but
thanks anyway!
