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

Hi, I''m using PuppetDB with builtin backend, haven''t switched yet to postgresql, and I''m starting to see decrease in performance of my agent runs. I use PuppetDB solely because of exported resources support. How soon should I think about moving to PostgreSQL? How many clients does my master need to serve, so that PuppetDB in it''s default installation,

Hi, I''m trying to program custom type for managing Couchbase buckets. Problem is that every RW operation to Couchbase cluster (creating, deleting, resizing bucket) requires admin privileges (username/password). Do you have any suggestion how should I pass the username/password to provider? If I make it a param, then every resource of type ''couchbucket'' will need to

Hi... I''ve been trying to set up boolean values in Hiera, but with no luck. For example, I''m using puppetlabs-haproxy module, and this is a code snippet: class haproxy ( $manage_service = true, ... ) inherits haproxy::params { ... if $manage_service { } } Now, this is how I set up values in hiera: haproxy::manage_service: false But, it seems that

I am trying to add ability to add virtual users to the git://github.com/erwbgy/puppet-system.git module as I really want the ability to use virtual users and then combine that with "User <| group == ''x'' and group == ''y'' |>" way of realizing the users. This is much more flexible than what I can do with this module out of the box. Using the

Hi. I encountered a following problem, if I state for example: package{"aspell-en": ensure => absent, } package{"aspell": ensure => absent, } I get error in logs because of dependencies. It seems that puppet uses ''yum'' for installation on CentOS and ''rpm -e'' for removal of packages, so it cannot handle this kind of dependencies:

Hi Guys, I am new to puppet so please let me know if this is not the correct place for asking this question. I am setting up a new puppet environment running the latest 3.x version. I have the puppet master and client setup correctly and tested with deploying a simple file to the client.

hello, Till now hiera-puppet was the only way I know that allowed hiera data to be loaded from inside a module. The problem with this was that it was still subject to the site specific hierarchy which means a module author had a pretty hard time to store his data in a proper way in his module thus perpetuating the use of the params classes pattern. Now that Puppet 3 is out and it''s gem

Recently, the issue of copying file modes from remote sources was discussed on the puppet-users mailing list[1], although it equally applies to owner and group. One issue is what permissions to apply to newly created files when none are specified? Historically, Puppet has always copied the permissions from the file source to the newly created one. However, this causes problems on Windows[2]

I''ve seen mention of this error in several places, with different causes. So before I posted here, I attempted to resolve this on my own. I corrected the change from puppet:///files to puppet:/// in my manifests *.pp files. No changes were made to the auth.conf file, and I did note in the ChangeLog that: Auth.conf differentiates between names and IPs – There’s a new allow_ip

Hi, I''m having a weird issue and was wondering if anyone else had run into it. I recently upgraded from puppet 2.7 -> 3.0.1 After cleaning up some gems on my puppet master everything seemed to be working ok. I had originally used the EPEL repo''s to deploy puppet, but switched to the Puppet Labs repos so I could upgrade to 2.7 then 3. On RHEL5 only, I get a RSTRING_PTR

Hi guys, I use samba to mount a share that has a SVN working copy of a big project. Problem is that with samba4 (tested on 4.0/4.1), working copies ever now and then get corrupted: svn: E200030: sqlite[S11]: database disk image is malformed But, when running samba 3 (tested on 3.5/3.6) it doesn't happen. Is there anything related to caching or delayed write in samba4 or something

Hi. Is it possible somehow to join a Linux machine to a AD Domain without providing any password on a CLI? So far, I've been joining machines purely by: # net ads joint -U Administrator%password But now, I'm trying to automatize the process through puppet, but don't know if it's possible somehow to join domain without using administrator (or any other) password? I can
