G''day all
I''ve got the following two lines in my site.pp:
# Define the bucket
filebucket { main: server => puppet }
# Specify it as the default target
File { backup => main }
Which I added based on something in the best practices page. Thing is,
I''ve got a couple of servers that are getting larger files (quite
large actually) and they are constantly changing and i really don''t
care about the files being different, causing their clientbucket
directory to get largish.
Is there a way to exclude the modules where i don''t care about
changes, short of nuking the current destination file before i
transfer the new copy (i figure that might do the trick, haven''t
checked though).
Cheers
chakkerz

Just set it to "false" for the individual files. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
