Hi All, I was wondering if it is possible to NOT show an event in puppet dashboard. I have an exec resource that fires of a ruby script. This is triggering a changed event on every run, but actually I want to exclude this from showing up as "CHANGED" Is this possible, if so how can I achieve this? --- myscript: --- exec { "run_myscript" : #

Hi, We have dedicated puppet master boxes, which basically only run a mongrel/puppetmasterd (6 instances), an apache proxy for mongrel and puppetd. Recently puppetmasterds seemed to have leaked almost all of the RAM, and the thrashing made the box painfully slow. We restarted the puppetmasterd processes, and started collecting some statistics. Attached is a graph of memory usage on one of the

We haven''t been able to use mongrel for testing yet, but in order not to waste time, we did some performance testing with 1, 2 and 4 puppetmasterd/webrick processes. Attached is an HTML page (ripped from our wiki - not pretty, but reasonably readable) which describes the method and results. If someone feels like making some nice graphs, that would be great. If not, I''ll try to

I''m having problems with a definition not being found. I get the following error when running puppetd -vt: err: Could not find type "manual_apt_get_update" in file /etc/puppet/manifests/definitions/apt_misc.pp at line 22 The definition is present for sure. Can anyone spot a problem with the code below? define manual_apt_get_update { exec { "/usr/bin/apt-get

Hi, We''re trying to follow the instructions at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMongrel (Just using a single puppetmaster/mongrel instance and plain mod_proxy for now, instead of balancer one) We got past the "Server is not a class" error by modifying mongrel.rb We also kind-of got past the: /opt/bin/puppetmasterd:293: undefined method `daemonize'' for

All, Once the puppet clients are installed, is there a option to list the client in the server. mind you I never meant the cert - signing list.. which would be puppetca --list.

Hello list. I''ve the following parent class: class munin::client { ... munin::client::plugin { "postfix_mailqueue": name => "postfix_mailqueue", enable => "false" } } And the following inherited class: class munin::client::plugins::postfix inherits munin::client { munin::client::plugin {

I have tried to use config_version and failed due to limitations in the way I would like to use it: - http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3692 - http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4845 - http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5404 As part of http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3692, we''d like to get a handle on who in the puppet community is using config_version successfully as it

[ Please would anyone replying to this maintain the Cc list here as my dear colleague is not subscribed to this mailing list. ] Hello all, I am trying to track down an oddity with winbindd. We're using samba only to join a given domain -- so the config file is very minimal, as per: [global] workgroup = TEDDYBEARS netbios name = SMOOTHWALL realm = TEDDYBEARS.LOCAL security = ads

Hi, Is there a way to have puppetmaster sign new clients'' certificates when using apache+mongrel for serving, without having a separate puppetmaster instance running webrick on a different port/IP? I guess this does not work out of the box because apache is told to do the verification very early in the connection process, at which point it does not yet know that the client is going to

Here''s one for you! We''re rolling out some zip files to our servers using Puppet, there''s an exec that unzips them, the zip file is then deleted. I need to remove the old versions of the unzipped directory using Puppet when we rol out a newer version. So, on my client/node machine I have the below directories. /opt/1234 /opt/12345 /opt/123456 What I need to do, is

Hello In case anyone is interested and for the sake of updating the documentation from http://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html , I would like to report that nut v2.7.4 talks successfully ( at least partially ) with the UPS from $topic, which is part of the product line from http://www.informups.com/guardian_guardian_lcd600va_2000va.html ( Inform is a Turkish manufacturer that was

Dear List, A student in the Department where I work would like to produce a graphic similar to this one: http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2009/09/16/Public_spending_160909.pdf Does anyone know if the figure in the pdf can be generated in a specific software application for example? Any suggestions would be most gratefully received by the student concerned. Many thanks,

We'd like to get new users to the information they need quickly and one thing new users want to know is if they can use Puppet for what they want to do. So far, we don't have a very extensive (or thorough) list of platforms and software solutions that our community is using with Puppet. To deal with this, I've drafted a short list of platforms under which Puppet is

Hi, I have just successfully configured Puppet to run with Mongrel, and would like to update the documentation with what I''ve learned. However, since I''m not an expert with these things, I thought I''d share with the list before updating the wiki. So here''s what I''d change: + Remove this picture:

Greetings all, My deployment of puppet includes a monitrc to make sure that puppetd stays up and running. It seems like (across all of my hosts) that pupeptd will end up dying and restarted by monit. I''m running puppetd under a screen session now on one particular host with --debug --verbose to see if any thing comes out on console but until it happens again, any anybody else

I''m trying to write a wrapper definition for the file type to make it a bit smarter. I have a basic version working fairly well: define xfile($owner = root, $group = root, $mode = 644, $source, $backup = main, $recurse = false, $ensure = file) { file { $name: mode => $mode, owner => $owner, group => $group, backup => $backup, recurse

Hi, I've been performing some TukeyHSD tests in R and have come across papers that include all the necessary information (means, sample size and SE) for me to perform the piecewise comparison by hand. I can reach out to the authors to get the original dataset, but it raises the question, can I perform the Test with the information I have and save myself some time? Is there a way to somehow
