Puppet users - Apr 2012 - How to execute a script from the server

Hi,

How to only execute the script from the server instead of first copying the 
file & then executing the script from puppet ?

Thanks

But that is how it works.

file{
    "/etc/puppet/scripts":
        ensure => directory,
        owner  => "root",
        group  => "root",
        mode   => 70oo;

    "/etc/puppet/scripts/checkUsers.bash":
        owner  => "root",
        group  => "root",
        mode   => 700,
        source => "puppet:///modules/password/checkUsers.bash";
}

exec{ "/etc/puppet/scripts/checkUsers.bash":
    user      => "root",
    logoutput => true,
    require   => File["/etc/puppet/scripts/checkUsers.bash"];
}

My answer depends on what you''re trying accomplish.  If you''re
trying
to get some data to fill in a resource, then a function is a good
choice.  Generate() will likely do what you need. If you''re trying to
manage something only on the server, I''d still model this as a file
and exec resource so it shows up in your reports and configuration
catalog.

Hope this helps.
