Hi, Is it possible to get response of a command from puppet ? For example if I run "nginx -t" it would give some details about the configurations i.e. if configuration has some error then which file has the error !

Hi,
You can get response from puppet, depend upon what you want to achieve.
*1st case* : if you want to log the output of command "nginx -t", you
can
use attribute
logoutput => "true" or "false"
of exec resource
Please refer http://www.puppetcookbook.com/posts/exec-output-logging.html for
deatailed description.
*2nd case* : if you want to execute something after finding file containing
configuration error
then you can use attribute
onlyif => "<command>"
of exec resource
Please refer http://www.puppetcookbook.com/posts/exec-onlyif.html for
deatiled description
Thanks & Regards,

If there is information you want to communicate to the master beyond what it already receives, then it is relatively easy for you to create your own custom fact, such as one that provides the output of a given command. Do be aware that on each Puppet run, all facts are evaluated before any changes are applied to the target node. Here is some documentation on creating custom facts: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/custom_facts.html .

Hi Adeel, You can send the manifests execution reports to puppet master. For the execution report files refer /var/lib/puppet/reports directory. For that you have to add report=true in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf file # # /etc/puppet/puppet.conf file # [agent] report =true From the reports .yml files you can extract the messages you need. Refer http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/reporting.html for details about report mechanism in puppet. Thanks and Regards, Rahul Khengare NTT DATA OSS Center, Pune, India.
