Dear all
I have a module spacewalk with a custom fact to define if the server has
been registered to spacewalk.
The module should only run on RedHat server
class profiles::base {
...
case $::osfamily {
redhat:{
include spacewalk
include logrotate
include postfix
}
solaris:{
include sendmail
}
default:{
fail("Unsupported platform: ${::osfamily}")
}
}
}
but the fact of the module spacewalk is run on Solaris.
bash-3.00# /opt/csw/bin/facter osfamily
Solaris
bash-3.00# /opt/csw/bin/puppet agent --test
Info: Retrieving plugin
Notice: /File[/var/opt/csw/puppet/lib/facter/spacewalk.rb]/ensure: defined
content as ''{md5}9aea0fbd79bc329b3685b7cfd22a5809''
I have another custom fact that should only run on certain server but it is
installed on every server.
Can you please help me?
Are facts always installed on every server even if the module of the fact
in only installed on certain server?
Best regards,
Andreas

Re: [Puppet Users] custom fact should not run on Solaris
Facts are autoloaded from all modules and distributed to all agents,
because that step occurs before the DSL is parsed for manifests (as it
should be, because the DSL can be (is) impacted by facts).
It is up to the custom fact to case itself out of execution for certain
operating systems. For instance, from the postgresql pupmod comes this
snippet from the customer fact about default versions:
Facter.add("postgres_default_version") do
setcode do
result case Facter.value(''osfamily'')
when ''RedHat''
get_redhatfamily_postgres_version()
when ''Linux''
get_redhatfamily_postgres_version()
when ''Debian''
get_debianfamily_postgres_version()
else
nil
end

Re: [Puppet Users] custom fact should not run on Solaris
Yes, exactly, but this begs the question: Am I out of date for adding
confine :operatingsystem => %w{Debian SLES OpenSUSE CentOS}
outside the setcode block?
Thanks,
Felix

Re: [Puppet Users] custom fact should not run on Solaris
I think that pattern''s still good. Possibly that''s the difference between a nil fact being set and the fact being missing, however.
