C:\Users\ml623>puppet --version 2.7.7 Puppet complains about a package resource I am trying to use saying: Invalid parameter install_options The resource is defined as: package { "splunk": name => $gu_splunk::client::splunk_package, provider => ''msi'', ensure => installed, source =>

I thought I read somewhere in Puppet docs/wiki... that it is "recommended" to avoid spaces in file paths, or some similar verbiage, but now I cant find it. Does Puppet have any known issues with spaces in file paths? It would of course scare Windows admins away... So I hope I am wrong in thinking I read that.

Hi, am trying this rule: firewall { ''100 allow ssh from GUNET'': proto => ''tcp'', dport => ''22'', source => [''10.0.0.0/8'',''192.168.0.0/16'',], action => accept, } and it only seems to add a rule for the first subnet. The second is silently

I have this in a template: ===============cut here===================== # Allow ICMP traffic -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT <% if netbackup_master_servers %> <% netbackup_master_servers.each do |master_server| -%> # Allow communication with NetBackup master server <%= master_server[0] %> -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp -m tcp -s <%= master_server[1]

In our environ, there are several services that are deployed via an NFS mount, so that the executables and configs are consistent across the board. Is there any reason why this couldn''t be done with Puppet? For example, each individual system would contain its own /etc/puppet and rc.d and pid files -- but the primary deployment would come from NFS. For that matter, as Enterprise

Hello all, This is not a puppet proper issue of course.. but I was wondering if any of you could share some thoughts... When you deploy a system like Puppet at a large park of systems, you instantly increase the efficacy of mistakes and bugs in destroying the environment.... How do you deal with that? I would be interested in any experience or input, especially puppet proper best practices...

Is it normal that "facter --puppet" does not show the environment variable? is there a way to have it include it?

Sorry for being off topic. am trying the following and yaml fails to construct the object: The inventory document, from Puppet dashboard inventory service, looks like: --- !ruby/object:Puppet::Node::Facts name: pirates.uis.example.com values: productname: VMware Virtual Platform kernelmajversion: "2.6" My code: class PuppetFacts(yaml.YAMLObject): yaml_tag =

What does this message mean: [root@pirates puppet]# rm -rf /var/lib/puppet/ssl/ [root@pirates puppet]# puppet cert --version 2.6.3 [root@pirates puppet]# puppet cert notice: Signed certificate request for ca notice: Rebuilding inventory file Invalid method to apply It seems to have created the ca and other things just fine.

I could swear this worked fine earlier.. Now facter, and hence puppet, do not see the domain name anymore: What could cause this?

We are using ruby-entreprise, instead of redhat''s default ruby.... I was trying to deploy the needed gem using: /opt/ruby-enterprise/bin/gem install --no-rdoc --no-ri /tmp/ruby-augeas-0.3.0.gem But found out this would require gcc to be installed! How can I preb-build this gem to remove the need for gcc on the nodes? is there an option of the gem command to generate a distributable

I noticed that is if I uninstall an MSI that was installed by Puppet, Puppet does not notice. Looking at the source I see it might be checking for a state file to know whether a package is installed or not: C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\db\package\msi\SplunkForwarder.yml So one has to rememebr to delete that too.... Is this design not a problem? Thanks, Mohamed. -- You received this

Hello All, I am trying to put puppet into push mode only. The instructions I''ve seen have said to put listen=true in puppet.conf but that doesn''t seem to have stopped the pull every 30 minutes. What else needs to be set? Thanks, Jim -- “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines.

Anybody knows what this error, bellow, means, the target file, C:/Splunk/etc/system/local/inputs.conf, does exist. sometimes, if I delete the file, it does actually create it, but never update it if it exists and changed... The resource is defined as:     file { "splunk_inputs":        owner   => SYSTEM,        group => SYSTEM,        mode    => 664,        require =>

This is pretty ugly. I''m using puppet to install Oracle, ie an exec{} wrapped around: /u01/oracle_extract/linux.x64_11gR2_database/database/runInstaller -silent -responseFile /etc/oracle_response.rsp The problem is that the damn installer backgrounds itself and returns control to the shell. I tried putting the above command in a script, followed by a wait command, but that

A little while back I asked how to make puppet not report on a resource.. and was shown the loglevel metaparam: Quoting bellman@nsc.liu.se: There is a metaparameter called ''loglevel''. If you set that to something lower than "notice" (i.e. either "info" or "debug"), then Puppet won''t report that it applied the resource... So I made my

Hi Experts, I''m trying to generate my own certificates (all of them, including certs for CA, server and client) for puppet to use. and I''m getting "Could not run: Could not retrieve certificate for puppetsrv and not running on a valid certificate authority" Just wondering what the problem could be? What I did is: 1. generate a self signed CA cert, and save the

Hello, I wanted to manage a couple of groups membership, under RedHat, without managing the users (as they are LDAP users) but found out it is not supported.... Is there a workaround to this?
