Puppet users - Jul 2011 - Control the sequence of module execution

Hey Guys
I was wondering how can I control the order of execution of various
modules on the puppet client.
Suppose I have a module A which installs mysql and there is module B
which executes mysql commands of importing DB, so how can I ensure
that module A is executed before module B.

Please help guys
Thanks

Hi, 

You can use the following:

require statements 
"require => Class[blah]" 

Ordering in your classes

Resource[blah] -> resource[blat]

Stages 

class {blah: stage => pre }
class {blat: stage => post}

But you mileage may vary depending on what you are doing.

Cheers,
Den
