Hi, I''m running client with --logdest=/var/log/puppet.log just to get a clean puppet log and don''t mix it with messages. # grep . /etc/sysconfig/puppet |grep -v "^#" PUPPET_SERVER=gridinstall01.pic.es PUPPET_LOG=/var/log/puppet.log But I only get this message in new log: # cat /var/log/puppet.log Mon Nov 24 14:5...

How do I tell puppet to log somewhere other than /var/log/messages. None of the logging configuration options seem to do anything any more. Specifically puppetdlog. # The log file for puppet agent. This is generally not used. # The default value is ''$logdir/puppetd.log''. puppetdlog = /var/lib/puppet/log/puppetd.log -- You received this message because you are

Hi All, I would like to pick your brains as to the best way to configure the below senario within puppet. I am currently configuring puppet for our environment and have seperated development/back office from production through configuring roles for each server to identify them as such. What i need to be able todo is have the production servers only update outside of office hours, but have the

...hostname set to localhost.localdomain initially at boot-time. There is this script file that runs in rc.local and this is what I do inside it 1. I change the hostname from localhost to xxx.xxxxxx using the hostname command. 2. start the puppet agent as /usr/sbin/puppetd --certname=xxx.xxxxxx --logdest=/var/log/puppet/puppet.log The problem I am facing is that the puppet agent on the VMs creates certificates for localhost.localdomain inspite of me changing the hostname to say xxx.xxxxxxx. I want the puppet agent to pick up the new hostname while creating the certificate, but it doesn''t...

Hello, puppetmasterd is running as shown here: puppet 10209 1.1 1.5 138124 62532 ?

Hello all, I am trying to write a script that will check logs for puppet errors to use in a nagios check. I am checking /var/log/messages (RHEL6) but when puppet runs on its 30 minute interval, nothing gets written to messages. I have also looked at /var/log/puppet/puppet.log but that does not seem to be consistent either: [root@gm10v nagios]# tail /var/log/puppet/puppet.log Wed May 02 14:27:47

Hi, I''m currently trying to debug a performance issue I''m having. Therefore I would need "DEBUG" output. When using one puppetmaster process, this is fairly easy by starting it like this: > puppet master --no-daemonize --debug Now I need to see this debug output when running puppetmaster the way I ususally do - using Apache/Rack/Passenger.

I noticed that a number of my Windows hosts had stopped dialing in, and upon closer inspection I found that Puppet was crashing in Ruby and wevtapi.dll. I can''t find any reference to this in the issue tracker, although I''ve got over a dozen occurrences in my environment, all with the same descriptions as below. I checked to see if the times were similar, in case the server

Hi, I am using a template to create an /etc/exports file.

My understanding was that at the beginning of each run the puppetmaster imports all modules so that any includes at the top level are applied directly. However, I am not so sure anymore. I''ve been tracing how this works and it seems like modules are included more lazily. In other words, when able_to_import is called seems like when the magic happens, rather than up front when the run
