Hi All I am trying to deploy the Solaris logadm pattern from http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Logadm_Patterns. I dropped it in .../lib/puppet/type/logadm.rb However, I am getting an error message: err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Munging failed for value "puppet" in class backup: Global resource access is deprecated And I have traced it back to

Can anyone comment / expand upon http://www.nico.schottelius.org/blog/puppet-sometimes-loads-a-class/ I am experiencing a case which may be related. We have an ENC, and recently on our twice daily noop runs from cron, puppet has reported some servers aren''t in sync because they do not have a certain module/class (dns_server) even though they are not subscribed to the dns_server module in

...le think about this sort of package that assumes it is the only puppet installation within an organisation?

Hello folks, I''ve been looking into how I might check (and possibly set) svc properties via puppet. The closest I''ve found, is the provider/service/smf stuff. However, that seems to only allow enabling and disabling of services. NOT of configuring properties. Is there some way I dont know of, how to do that? If not, and I need to write something... under which module/plugin/

On a file resource, if the content parameter is set and checksum is set to none, I am getting "Parameter content failed: Munging failed..." This appears to be a bug, but maybe I missed something in the documentation and it isn''t supposed to work. cat test.pp file { "/tmp/foo": checksum => none, content => "this is foo\n", } puppet

Hey Folks, I''m looking at doing automated provisioning of new servers and am trying to integrate puppet into this process. What I''m wondering though is what the best process for securely registering a new node is. At the moment the first time puppet is run I have to then accept the certificate on the puppetmaster and then run puppet again. What I would like to do is accept the

Hi all, I have an interesting one - Solaris uses a lot of commands to configure specific items. A simple example is coreadm. In this example: # coreadm -p "/var/core/core_%n_%f_%u_%g_%t_%p" will set the directory and filename to dump core files (with some expansion). The question is - how to get this to run only if the config has changed. I have come up with 2 options, neither of

I''d like to include similar information that notice() spits out in a file I am generating -- basically so that anyone looking at the generated file (actually a file fragment) could trace it back to the class that is generating the entry. Using $name within the file fragment is the closest I am getting to what I want -- is there anything better? -- You received this message because you

Hi, When I put noop = true in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf on the node in question, I observe no changes. Great. Good But also, I see because of report = true absolutely zero information in the yaml regarding what would have been changed. Is there an equivalent to the above for "test = true" or must I alter the rc file to include --test ? Thanks ahead Puppet wizards!!! -- You

Hi All I have a bit of a strange one, and am not sure I''m doing this right. This is with 2.6.4 on Solaris 10 We want to create a sym link from a source file that is created by a package. If the package isn''t installed, puppet in noop is registering an error (big red in the dashboard) because it cannot stat the source file of the link. root@warbjohn# cat /tmp/symlink2.pp

Hi I am scratching my head on this not being a ruby person... I am turning my kickstart files into templates, but am having issues with percent signs in free form text. This returns a syntax error: %post OK, fine , let me escape it: %%post No error, but the end result is %%post Not quite what I wanted I''m missing something blindingly obvious - can someone point me to it? :-)

Hi All Apologies if this is obvious, but I''m a bit flaky around SSL certificates. NB puppet version 0.25.5 We use the brilliant feature of certificates where you can have Alternate DNS names for a certificate which is manifested in the puppet master config file as certdnsnames. All our clients connect to puppet-$ location.example.com, and if $location is down, we can point the CNAME to

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

Hi All Background: I am running Puppet to configure ESX 3.5 servers by NFS mounting the Puppet binaries and configuration from a shared server.
