I am trying to create a hostgroup using the Foreman API (foreman-0.4-0.1rc1.noarch): Using perl v.5.14.2, REST::Client et. al., ending up with sending: POST /hostgroups {"name":"api-created- hostgroup","architecture_id":"","medium_id":"","environment_id":&qu...

Running puppet 2.6.11 opensource on Red Hat 5.6 client. I cannot explain this logically but I have a directory structure like so: /etc/puppet/manifests/hiera/hostgroups/ with directories for each of my application areas like so: *clickz core devel dns icross iswap itch puppet test ubuntu* *What is weird is that if I put anything under the directory named "core", the ext lookup works fine*, but if I move it to another directory or move th...

I am trying to supplement and ultimately provide a patch for ''foreman'' which is an adjunct to puppet. Essentially, there is a Hosts class which belongs_to Hostgroup and Hostgroup class has a column called ''ancestry'' which is actually a Hostgroup (probably what is referred to as STI but I am not sure) and thus within Foreman, nesting Hostgroups is not uncommon. Thus I could have a Host that is called "ServerA", that belongs to &quot...

...ided to try out hiera as an alternative.  It seems like a nice tool, but in my case there is a very big downside - the inability to match the fqdn based on a regular expression.  This was brought up in a previous thread[2]. As an example, here is my existing extlookup configuration from site.pp: $hostgroup = regsubst($hostname, ''-*\d+$'', '''') $extlookup_datadir = "/etc/puppet/environments/${environment}/manifests/extdata" $extlookup_precedence = [ ''hostnames/%{fqdn}'', ''hostgroups/%{hostgroup}'', ''common''...

...service by a nagios server, without needless repetition. Let me explain how my non-automated nagios3 server is configured: Each service is declared once per type (or type+role, but there are very few types distinguished by role, so we''ll ignore that for now). Services are members of hostgroups and servicegroups, and hosts join hostgroups in order to activate monitoring. Servicegroups are mostly used for sorting in the Web UI. Now let''s look at how Puppet "wants" to configure Nagios: Each host exports a unique service for each of the checks it should be subject t...

Hi, so I''m trying to use the built in nagios_host type and there appears to be one huge glaring hole - the lack of a hostgroups parameter. And before anyone asks why I can''t use the nagios_hostgroup type, if someone can tell me how I can collect members without having to manage the hostgroup members manually, that would be fantastic. There''s a servicegroups parameter for services, how has hostgroups bee...

...nfiguration and architecture that i want to tag them with "tag2" . and so on and so on . lets say i have would like to perform some action (run service -insure => latest ) only on tag1 . is there a way to perform this action within foreman ? i know i can do do group actions with "Hostgroup" but a host can belong to only one hostgroup . what happens if i want a host to belong to more that 1 group ? . i hope that my question is clean . thank you for any help . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hi everyone, I am reconsidering how I am using the Puppet nagios functionality, at the moment I am creating one service for each check on each host. A lot of them are identical, and would be better tied to hostgroups to simplify my config. Namely, I have about 5,000 checks in there now which will go up to about 20K over the next month, and it''s taking about 5-10 minutes for a Puppet agent run on the nagios server now. I''ve tried running through the spaceship operator to collect hostgroup memb...

...efinition is repeated many times, once per node I''d much rather configure nagios like most people would do it if they weren''t generating their configs. Rather than having 100 service definitions for 100 webservers, they have 1 service definition that applies to 100 hosts, or to 1 hostgroup that has 100 nodes in it. Here''s the problem: I can''t think of anything to put in the apache class that will result in a host being in the "apache" nagios hostgroup (which ultimately is set by a comma delimited string). That''s because: - an element in a comma...

I''ve been using foreman as an ENC and assigning node parameters for some time and it was clearly working but it apparently broke somewhere along the way and I can''t tell why. Here''s part of the modules/sudoers/manifests/sudoers_hostgroup.pp class sudoers::hostgroup { case hostgroup { default: { file{"/etc/sudoers.d/admins_web": ensure => present, owner => root, group => root, mode => 0440, source => "puppet:///modules/sudoers/admins_web&quot...

...resence of a particular extension to permit login. > > But the other big question is the usability of the process for issuing > and using the OpenSSH user certs. What's your idea on this? I hadn't got to the details of the user side, but AFAICS all it requires is a list of user:hostgroup principals to include in the cert for a given user.? This could be kept directly as an attribute of the user, or you could generate it via a level of indirection (user -> group; group -> list of principals or principal suffixes) At the host side, I was thinking of authorizing principals b...

...et manifests are the right place to manage contacts, contact groups, and their use within host and service definitions for notifications. Has anyone made use of the puppet + Nagios XI? Would it be possible to manage notifications within the webUI while still using puppet for generating the host,hostgroup,service configs? Pagerduty isn''t an option for reasons I can''t get into here. Thanks, Ryan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, I am trying to work out the best way to issue SSH certificates in such way that they only allow access to specific usernames *and* only to specific groups of host. As a concrete example: I want Alice to be able to login as "alice" and "www" to machines in group "webserver" (only). Also, I want Bob to be able to login as "bob" and

Hi everyone, I recently ran into an issue where my puppetmaster can''t run puppet on itself. It errors out with the following: Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: execution expired Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I''m running Puppet 3 with passanger and puppetdb (hsql).

...a new cert. Eventually it would be nice to move to daily certs with online login (e.g. cashier, step-ca) in which case anyone who needs a new cert can get it themselves instantly.? The main thing stopping me from doing this straight away is your other point: > You have to maintain this user-hostgroup relationship somewhere. Is it > possible for your system to query this information? The inventory system tracks hosts rather than users, but I don't see a big problem putting the user-group relationship into LDAP, even if it only writes out a flat file periodically. However, the system w...

Hi. I have the following facts available: # facter | grep oper operatingsystem => CentOS operatingsystemrelease => 6.2 Now, if I wish to use conditionals on these facts, I have to do it like this: case $operatingsystem {} case $::operatingsystemrelease {} I''m puzzled as to why can''t I just use $operatingsystemrelease, and what do these two semicolons mean? Thank

Does any one know how to evaluate a node hostname in the nodes.pp file? for example something like this.. node ''node1.com'', ''node2.com'', ''node3.com'' { case node.name { ''node1.com'' : { include solaris } ''node2.com'' : { include redhat } ''node3.com'' : { include aix
