[Puppet Users] Collecting only certain virtual resources?
I''m currently working on automating our Nagios monitoring with Puppet.
My plan is to have three different Nagios servers... one in each data
center. I''d like to have the Chicago (location =>
''CH3'') Nagios
server only monitor servers who also reside in that data center.
My question is, how do I go about collecting only the correct virtual
resources on each Nagios server? Ideally, I''d like to collect only
resources that belong to servers who''s location fact matches the
location fact of the nagios server.
For example:
Nagios_host <<| |>> { notify =>
Class[''nagios::service''] }
Nagios_service <<| |>> { notify =>
Class[''nagios::service''] }
collects services and hosts for ALL data centers, not just where the
location fact is ''CH3''.
I''m using a single mysql DB for thin stored configs, and have three
puppet masters, one in each location. All three are connecting to the
same mysql db for stored configs.
Any suggestions? There might just be some simple syntax that I''m
missing.
Thanks,
Kevin.

Re: [Puppet Users] Collecting only certain virtual resources?
Hello, You can use the "tag" argument to mark different resources and then collect only the resources with a certain tag. See an example on this page: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/exported_resources.html On 11-10-19 05:48 PM, Kevin Wolf wrote:> I''m currently working on automating our Nagios monitoring with Puppet. > > My plan is to have three different Nagios servers... one in each data > center.
