Puppet users - Aug 2006 - little mount question

Hello,

  I was wondering while playing with the mount type if there is a way to
just add options to mountpoint without touching anything else.

For exemple :

# prevent kernel bug
mount { proc:
    options    => [ ''noexec'',''nosuid'']
}


or

mount { var:
    options    => [ ''noatime'',''usrquota'']
}

as i want to add and not replace, is something like

mount { var:
    options    => [ ''noatime'',''usrquota'']
+ mount[var].options
}


possible ? what if there is duplicate like if /var allready has noatime ?

You cannot currently do that, unfortunately.  It could be added -- users
can specify whether the group list is inclusive, meaning it specifies
all of the groups the user should be a member of, or if the groups are
just additive.  It wouldn''t be hard to do something similar with
mounts.

It''d be nice to have a generic way to do this, but it''s not
really a
problem for most types.

If this is important to you, then file an enhancement request and I''ll
see what I can do.
