Hi all, I''m starting my puppet tests... I''ve done some basci conf (auto-fs, fstab...) but now, I''m stopped in a yum problem. First, how do you manage yum updates?¿ exec? I''ve seen some apt-example ( http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/Apt_Repositories) and there they use exec, but as it''s apt... I have something like: class repos { yumrepo { "glite-wn": baseurl => " http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/EGEE/gLite/R3.1/glite-WN/sl4/x86_64/", descr => "gLite 3.1 Worker Node", enabled => 1, enablegroups => 1, gpgcheck => 0, gpgkey => ''absent'', name => "gLite-WN", [...] exec { "/usr/bin/yum -y update": creates => "/tmp/update", } } If yes, where to use it? at the begginig? cause I''ve at the end, and in combination with "creates" shoulnd''t matter, is it? Cause now it does not execute the update and the file does not exists: ]# ls -lsa /tmp/update ls: /tmp/update: No such file or directory Anyway, if I don''t care about repos, the system hangs here: ]# puppetd --server gridinstall01.pic.es --waitforcert 60 --test --verbose notice: Ignoring cache info: Caching configuration at /var/lib/puppet/localconfig.yaml notice: Starting configuration run and looking at processes: root 24997 13.5 0.3 54676 25128 pts/0 S+ 18:16 0:00 | \_ /usr/bin/ruby /usr/sbin/puppetd --server gridinstall01.pic.es --waitforcert 60 --test --verbose root 25176 69.0 1.1 207952 97692 pts/0 S+ 18:16 0:02 | \_ /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install glite-TORQUE_client-3.1.2 and hangs here for a loooooooong time, then I kill it. this is my package part: class package_install { package { "lcg-CA": provider => ''yum'', ensure => ''1.25'', } package { "java-1.5.0-sun": provider => ''yum'', ensure => ''1.5.0.15'', } package { "java-1.5.0-sun-devel": provider => ''yum'', ensure => ''1.5.0.15'', } package { "glite-TORQUE_client": provider => ''yum'', ensure => ''3.1.2'', } First, why it goes to glite-TORQUE first when the other packages aren''t installed? (as it doesn''t update repos) # rpm -qa|grep lcg-CA [root@td234 yum.repos.d]# Second, why it hangs for ever in the install?

What you want to do a minimum would be "/usr/bin/yum -y update > /tmp/update" or "/usr/bin/yum -y update && touch /tmp/update" or something that will actually create /tmp/update.> Anyway, if I don''t care about repos, the system hangs here: > ]# puppetd --server gridinstall01.pic.es --waitforcert 60 --test --verbose > notice: Ignoring cache > info: Caching configuration at /var/lib/puppet/localconfig.yaml > notice: Starting configuration run > > > and looking at processes: > root 24997 13.5 0.3 54676 25128 pts/0 S+ 18:16 0:00 | \_ > /usr/bin/ruby /usr/sbin/puppetd --server gridinstall01.pic.es --waitforcert > 60 --test --verbose > root 25176 69.0 1.1 207952 97692 pts/0 S+ 18:16 0:02 | > \_ /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install > glite-TORQUE_client-3.1.2 > > > and hangs here for a loooooooong time, then I kill it. >How long does it take to install that package on the command line? Puppet isn''t going to run yum any faster than you can, so if that package takes 10mins to download and install, puppet is going to take 10mins to download and install..> First, why it goes to glite-TORQUE first when the other packages aren''t > installed?

If you want to install these things in a particular order, you need to use require or before. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
