case $operatingsystem: {
case $kernelmajorversion: {
''6.1'' : { code }
''6.2'' : { code }
default
}
}
Thanks.

If you put that into a test.pp. replace "code" with a notify, and then run "puppet apply test.pp" you''ll be able to find out really quickly if it will work or not. That being said, i haven''t tried it, but a quick look at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_conditional.html#case-statements indicates it probably won''t work.> Thanks. >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Also, the inner case statement has no code block (and no colon) for its ''default'' case. There oughtn''t to be a problem nesting case statements if you get the syntax right: case $operatingsystem: { ''RedHat'', ''CentOS'' : { case $kernelmajorversion: { ''6.1'' : { ... } ''6.2'' : { ... } } } } John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

The code can become quite verbose, but that''s not necessarily a bad thing. :) Regards, Martijn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
