Hi, My requirement is copy some files from agent source to agent's destination. I have the list of files. I store the list of file as a hash looks follows *$foo = [{"addr" => $source1, "dest" => $destination1}, {"addr" => $source2, "dest" => $destination2}]* And then I define a type as follows to go through the hash and execute copy command * define bar () { $var1 = $name["addr"] $var2 = $name["dest"] exec { "myexec": command => "cp ${var1} ${var2}", cwd => $agentLocation, mode => "0777", path => $command_path, logoutput => true, timeout => 3600, } } * But this gives me exception says * Error 400 on SERVER: Duplicate declaration: Exec[myexec] is already declared in file /etc/puppet/modules/config/manifests/init.pp:78; cannot redeclare at /etc/puppet/modules/config/manifests/init.pp:78* How can I correct this or is there any alternative for this specific task ?
