Modules design patterns ?
...y parameters. But I''m sure there are drawbacks... So now, the question is, if other more experimented people are writing modules in the first way, what am I missing with the second form? What module design patterns are considered best pratice? Thanks, -- Brice Figureau <brice+puppet@daysofwonder.com> Days of Wonder, http://www.daysofwonder.com/

mod_proxy_balancer under heavy load.
So I''m still working on a ''perfect'' setup so I can document it on the wiki, and will submit some puppet patches against 0.23.2 next week, but here''s what I''ve done that has made a big difference to stability here. in puppetmasterd at line 261, I''ve modified the Mongrel instantiation from: server = Mongrel::HttpServer.new(addr,

puppetd daemon vs. cron
Hi, I''m running multiple vservers and have some aspects managed via puppet. I noticed that puppetd consumes from 20 to 60 mb RAM and the longer the process runs, the more RAM it takes. It looks like 60MB is the top what I measured. Having a couple of vservers (11 in my case) this can already take up to 500MB just for puppet! I''m wondering if there''s any downside in

Puppetmaster with stored configs leaks file descriptors on CentOS 5
Hi folks, When I enabled stored configs on my puppet master, it began keeping lots of open connections to the MySQL server (as far as I understand it opened one connection for each client run and never closed them). I set up the server to close idle connections after 5 minutes. Now the database server does close the connections but the puppet master keeps them in CLOSE_WAIT state and eventually

PC EU feedback: exported resource syntax is too magical, hard to read
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7612 The exported resources syntax: @@user { luke: ensure => present } Is concise and powerful, but very difficult to read. We should consider word-based syntax, e.g.: export @user { luke: ensure => present } And taking into account #7605, perhaps: export virtual user { luke: ensure => present } Please comment on the ticket or reply

OT: best way to move maildirs to another host ?
...e. If I strictly move the files, I can be sure that the moved files won't have the same inodes number as what is in the name. Should I care ? Or should I use something different than scp/rsync to perform the migration ? Thanks for your answers, Regards, -- Brice Figureau <brice+dovecot at daysofwonder.com>

mongrel and reverse proxy security
Hi, It seems that webrick cannot handle too much client and that luke is making mongrel the ''default'' server to use so i wanted to switch to mongrel. Then i read that i cannot use directly mongrel like webrick because it does not speak SSL. So my issue is : how to be sure things stay secure in the way that the proxy should be the one speaking ssl and making client ssl

Builtin Nagios types
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I''me using nagios builtin types and I''m very surprised that the parameter *name* is not available for type nagios_host ?!? This parameter is required to use inheritance (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectinheritance.html) and I don''t understand why it is not included in all nagios types ? Maybe someone has

Shared maildir through namespace help...
...rectory even if it is in a public namespace. Now, the question, is: is that setup could work only with virtual users setup with a static uid/gid ? Is there a mean to implement what I want ? Does using symlinks instead of the namespace could work ? Regards, -- Brice Figureau <brice+dovecot at daysofwonder.com>

Exported resources & exec ?

Unfortunately the files in /var/lib/puppet/modules/djbdns/masters.d/ are always empty on the slaves. Any ideas on how I could solve this issue ? -- Brice Figureau <brice+puppet@daysofwonder.com>

Visualizing puppet circular dependencies
I recently got a scary-looking circular dependency as a puppet error, and it took some thought to decipher it. Long story short, I fed it to graphviz, and the graph made it obvious where the problem was. Thought I''d share, in case others are having the same trouble. Code''s at http://gist.github.com/74566, and also pasted below for convenience. -- Philip # Make sense of

How to keep several puppetd in sync at the same time ?
...e between two synchronize run. (Is there any documentation somewhere that explains the synchronization process?) Can you think about a more puppet-like way of doing things which guarantees each puppetd can see the same data file at about the same time ? Thanks, -- Brice Figureau <brice+puppet@daysofwonder.com>

Puppet 100% CPU usage
Hi, I''ve been experimenting with Puppet for a few days now, and I really like it. But! I''m having real CPU usage problems. Puppet is still happily eating away 100% CPU for almost an hour at a time, with no apparent things happening. (puppetd -tv --trace --debug, but nothing appearing in the console during this.) I believe the following resource is to blame: file {

Learn from MY Mistake: "false" != false
Sharing my stoopid mistake in the hopes of saving someone else the same grief: I had a boolean toggle that was not performing as expected. Long story short: I had put quotes around the word "false" class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => "false" } was coming up TRUE To fix it, lose the quotes class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => false } “Sometimes I

Taking github noise away from puppet-dev list
Since our move to github for pull requests and patches, the usefulness of puppet-dev has declined significantly. puppet-dev used to be a great list for development discussion of puppet and the ecosystem around it. With the information and pull request emails from github, unless everybody has finely-tuned their email clients, the puppet-dev list has turned into mostly noise. We have a goal to
