Hello,
For the life of me I cannot get this to work. It''s seemingly doable
with a
single class but outside....
params.pp:
class vmware::params {
case $::lsbmajdistrelease {
''4'': {
$packagelist = "[ ''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-smp'',
''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-up'' ]"
}
default: {
$packagelist = ''vmware-tools-esx-kmods''
}
}
}
install.pp
package { "$vmware::params::packagelist":
ensure => present,
}
Which results in this:-
err:
/Stage[main]/Vmware::Install/Package[[''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-smp'',
''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-up'']]/ensure: change from absent to
present failed:
Execution of ''/usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install
[''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-smp'',
''vmware-tools-esx-kmods-up'']'' returned 1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
I have tried escaping this in all sorts of crazy ways but not having a good
deal of luck.
Anyone have the right way to do this ?
Cheers
Paul
