[Puppet Users] Controlling the frequency of different tasks.
I know that the puppet client runs the entire catalog at the frequency you decide but... I do think it would be nice to be able a little more fine grained approach to this. For example I might want to ensure that my package => latest is only run once a day or that some other task is run every five minutes. Just a thought. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Just note that if you want stuff running every 5 minutes, use cron - running Puppet every 5 minutes is generally not practical.
