Hi all I started researching on puppet and decided I''ll try it out on Vmware Workstation using Ubuntu 10.04. So I''m trying to do the simplest puppet install pattern as outlined in http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Simplest_Puppet_Install_Pattern. For now, I''m trying to test puppetd and puppetmasterd on the same machine. I start puppetmaster and

Hello there, I am very new to puppet and tried to copy some files (namely /etc/ puppet/manifests/files/websphermq/status.dat [on master] to /tmp/ status.dat [on puppet]) from master to the puppets. My setup is as follows: Puppet 0.25.5 fileserver.conf: [webspheremq] path /etc/puppet/manifests/files/webspheremq allow * auth.conf (default): # allow nodes to retrieve their own catalog (ie their

Hi, I''ve been experimenting with Puppet for a few days now, and I really like it. But! I''m having real CPU usage problems. Puppet is still happily eating away 100% CPU for almost an hour at a time, with no apparent things happening. (puppetd -tv --trace --debug, but nothing appearing in the console during this.) I believe the following resource is to blame: file {

Hi all, To start, using puppet 0.25.5 on Debian Lenny with Ruby 1.8.7.72-3lenny1. I''m giving ruby a shot and am trying to build my own types for several applications and modify available types found on the ''net for our usage. However, I keep running into problems with the default provider it selects. Is there a document somewhere that describes how the default provider is

Greetings, Our environment consists of about 600 Redhat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, 5, and soon 6 servers. We use cfengine 2 currently, but plan on migrating to puppet. Right now, we have our root-owned cfengine client running every 15 minutes from cron contacting a single cfservd server. Additionally, our employees start their own cfengine and puppet instances on on some servers running under

Hi, I have this in my sshdconfig module''s init.pp but the service is not getting restarted even though at first connect the file sshd_config is getting modified with the Banner entry. Can someone please help? class sshdconfig { file { "/etc/ssh/sshd_config": path => "/etc/ssh/sshd_config", owner => root,

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

I''m looking for a way to run more than one puppetmaster on the same server under passenger. Most of the puppet CPU load is waiting for the catalogs to compile. This also seems to be mostly what takes large amounts of RAM. I have storedconfigs on. I want to be able to move the fileserver to a different pool of puppetmaster processes. Is there an easy way to tell the client, either in

I''m using puppet-dashboard 1.1.0-1 on Ubuntu. I remove old reports using this command: nice -n +1 rake RAILS_ENV=production reports:prune upto=1 unit=mon This seems to work fine, and the amount of reports returnd by this mysql query seems to drop by the proper amount: select count(*) from reports; Right now it returns a value of 12591. So far so good. The problem is the

Hi, all. I''m not familiar with puppet itself and want to know that this is possible or not.. As I know, puppet client updates all files from server without regard to the files are old or new.. But, I think that puppet client should update the files only when the target files from server are new.. so is there any option to do this? Thanks... -- You received this message because you

Hi I have been trying to get puppet working with kickstart. I am trying to install Hadoop on the nodes. Installing puppet from kickstart work and when the machine restarts, certificates are pulled down and hadoop user is created and files are extracted. I want all the user creation etc to be done before the machine reboots so that I can set up init.d scripts to do a start of hadoop . So I

Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to automatically import the puppet classes to the dashboard in order to manage them from the gui. I didn''t find exact instructions to make the puppet clients report directly to the dashboard instead of importing the reports every time through the command rake RAILS_ENV=production reports:import . Does anyone has the exact instructions? Thanks

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7600 I call this the "agent orange" option :) This works, purging all unmanaged hosts entries: resources { ''host'': purge => true, noop => true, } We should have a similar property for all (most?) types. Please comment on the ticket or reply here, whichever you prefer. Thanks! r P.S. This is in

Good Evening! I''m having issues with the order in which items are ran inside of a service class, it''s attempting to run before the provider is present (the provider is provided by the glassfish package). It looks for the glassfish provider prior to inheriting the repository or the package list. http://snipt.org/woomg I have included a snipt of the code, does anyone have an

Hi. Is there any way to make puppet run a particular module first before another module is run. For example, I''m using the augeas resource type in one of the modules. But libaugeas-ruby1.8 is not installed in the client machine. So when the catalog is run, I get the following error: Could not find a default provider for augeas. So I built another module that will install the

When an error occurs in prerun_command, puppet continues execution instead of stopping. We can see the error at the log file, but puppet cotinues doing changes: puppetd[18430]: Failed to prepare catalog: Could not run command from prerun_command: Execution of ''/path/to/command'' returned 1: We want to prevent changes when an error occurs in prerun_command. Our puppet.conf:

For some reason I am unable to run "dry runs" of the puppet client on my puppetmaster server. Running puppetd with the --test, --noop and verbose / debug flags results in nothing for about a minute or two then this output... $ time puppetd --test --noop -v err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: execution expired warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not

Hi all. I''m unable to integrate puppet dashboard as I keep getting the following error: No report named ''puppet_dashboard'' Relevant configuration (names changed to protect the innocent).. ==== /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [puppetd] libdir=$vardir/lib libdir=/var/www/puppet-dashboard/lib/puppet [puppetmasterd] reports = puppet_dashboard

Hi, I have a simple use case, but can''t get the dependency resolution to work on first run. This is not critical, but I want to understand what''s going on. Here''s the szenario: * puppet --version: 2.6.4 * on the bare system, I have vim 6.4 installed (no vim-base) * I first want to upgrade to the latest version in repo, which is 7.1, * and then install vim extensions for

Anyone had any experience getting puppet to update multiple OS''s on a single server? For example, for a set of blades Network booting from a primary server, the OS for each blade would be stored on the primary server. For example: /pxe/host1/<normal OS directory structure> /pxe/host2/<normal OS directory structure> ..... /pxe/hostn/<normal OS directory structure> Can
