Hi list, Some weeks ago some asked if there was a Melbourne puppet group. There isn''t to my knowledge but I would be happy to organize an irregular catch up in Melbourne where we can talk puppet and other things of interest. I was thinking the Wednesday the 20th of this month would be good - somewhere in the city after work. Thinking ''the Workshop'' in Elizabeth street

Hi guys I have a custom fact envt, it was working fine but now I have to make some changes in it; puppet client''s hostname is of the type 1234qa-abc-de.local where 1234 can be any thing of any length.My custom fact should contain qa, ie I want to check in the first part(before the first -) of the hostname if there exists a pattern/word qa and if it exists then my custom fact for envt

So, this has always puzzled me a bit. By convention, init.pp contains one class, named the same as the module. However, what is the convention when the module may have multiple external access points? Say you have a module called ''syslog'' which provides both a client and a server class. I typically have used syslog::server and syslog::client. I''ve ended up using this

Hi all, Firstly, I''m using 2.6.9 and have updated to the latest cucumber puppet gems (cucumber-puppet 0.3.5) that allow for storeconfigs to be tested - thanks to Nikolay and his post (http://blog.nistu.de/ 2011/09/04/testing-exported-resources-with-cucumber-puppet/). Yay! I have been trying to get some testing of a ''testnode'' which would be a generic node that I can

Hi. First off my situation is this; I have a module that''s split up in such a way that it runs as follows: Install packages => Ensure files are present => insure service is running. Now say I have a stable cluster up and running. I want to push a new file change on a configuration to all slaves; Is there any reason puppet would try to install packages and start services

Dear experts, Since I''ve moved my *puppetmaster* form SL5 (Scientific Linux) to SL6 with SELinux on, I''m facing loads of trouble.

I am experiencing a curious event, and wondering if others have seen this... As well, I have a question related to it. Today, I noticed my puppet summary report from Foreman this morning, that 60 of my 160 hosts all stopped reporting at nearly the exact same time, and have not since restarted. Investigating, it appears that my puppetmaster temporarily ran out of disk space on the /var
