Hello Everyone;
I am stuck...
I am testing creating virtual resources and having no luck at all. I am
not getting any errors when I execute puppet agent --test but, the user
account is never getting created. I would be so grateful if anyone would
be kind enough to offer some advice.
(virtual.pp)
class user::virtual
{
@user {"john": ensure => present}
@user {"graham": ensure => present}
@user {"steven":}
}
class user::developers
{
realize( User["graham"],
User["steven"] )
}
node ''default'' {
include test
include motd
include user::virtual
include user::developers
}
Thanks in advance!

We usually choose to inherit the developers class from the virtual class, have you tried that approach?

The other option is to move the include virtual to inside the user::developers class.

That should not be the case. I''ve yet to see any evidence for this happening. The theory is: If a virtual resource X is declared *anywhere* in a given node''s manifest, realizing it will add it to the catalog.

I don''t think that''s the way it works. Yes, the virtual resource can be declared anywhere, but its declaration needs to have been parsed before the resource can be realized. Personally, I would put "include ''user::virtual''" at the beginning of the body of class user::developers to address that requirement. I do not think it''s a parse-order issue, however. In the first place, Puppet should emit an error message if instructed to realize an (at that point) unknown resource. In the second place, the node declaration includes user::virtual before user::developers, so they should be parsed in that order. I''m with Felix in thinking that there is some missing or incorrect information here. The output from "puppet agent --debug --no- daemonize --onetime" might help clarify things.
