The simpleSteps limitToHostSet Attribute

The limitToHostSet attribute of the <simpleSteps> element specifies the name of the host set containing the hosts that are considered valid targets for this plan. If unspecified, all hosts are considered valid targets. Otherwise, the targets specified by the client must be a subset of the hosts contained in the named host set. If the targets include a host not contained in the named host set, it is a plan run time error. It is also a plan run time error to specify a name that does not correspond to an existing host set. The plan run time errors described here are reported during validation before preflight starts.
