Hi, We''re using thin stored configs heavily to manage things like Munin and Nagios and we''re currently wondering what to do when nodes go away, or change considerably. If we get rid of a server then all it''s stored config is still present in the database, as well as it''s nagios and munin configurations. We created a script that iterates thr...

Hi there, I have a strange problem with the exported ressources in the munin module I wrote. See: http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet-users/2007-June/003179.html For some reason it stopped working. On the munin::host I get the error that: err: Could not retrieve configuration: Exported resource File[munin_def_XY_4949] cannot override local resource The munin::host...

Hi all, I am new to puppet and also newcomer in this group. I heart good things about puppet and I decided to give it a try 2 weeks now. After reading various documentation, I began using the complete configuration collection of puppet modules (thanks to David). But I have a problem with the munin module. It works fine, except that it seems to not export virtual ressources. Let me give more detail about my configuration: I use puppet version 0.24 on debian etch. here is my puppet.conf file content [main] logdir=/var/log/puppet vardir=/var/lib/puppet ssldir=/var/lib/puppet/ssl rundir=/var/run...

Hello all. Probably this question has already been posed in the context of another software, but I am unable to find it. I would like to implement a module which should manage munin-clients as well as the munin-server. Here is what I am thinking about implementing: - There are two classes: munin::client and munin::server - munin::clients'' configuration will be managed automatically. This is easy. - munin::server should also be managed automatically, but here the s...

Greetings, I''m trying to wrap my head around a solution to a problem I''m facing with an exported resources configuration I have. I''m using the following simple config to build a munin configuration: @@file { "/etc/munin/munin.conf.d/${::fqdn}.node": content => "[All Hosts;${::fqdn}] address ${ipaddress_eth0} use_node_name yes\n\n", tag => ''munin-node'', } File <<| tag == ''munin-node'' |>> I...

Hi, This is totally off-topic (it''s an rpm/rpmbuild problem), but I want to get to a point where I''m installing and configuring munin-node with puppet. To do that, I need a clean, standardized way of installing munin-mode on CentOS (RHELish) boxes. I could install munin-node from source via puppet and probably make enough edits that all the files end up in reasonable locations (a problem with installing from source vs from RPM.)...

Hello list. I''ve the following parent class: class munin::client { ... munin::client::plugin { "postfix_mailqueue": name => "postfix_mailqueue", enable => "false" } } And the following inherited class: class munin::client::plugins::postfix inherits munin::client { munin::cli...

Hi, I was playing with the munin plugin in nsd4 beta4, and saw some strange errors. Directly after starting nsd on linux, I'm seeing: $ ps ax -o pid,ppid,user,args | grep nsd 1638 1 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1641 1638 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1647 1641 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /e...

Hey Guys, I am trying to wrap some loose ends up before we close tomorrow and have one last thing. I have been asked to monitor tunnel bandwidth for vpn clients over the holidays and whipped up a quick Munin plugin to do this. It works well but one problem is that when a client disconnects, the plugin stops submitting graph data for it, so the png's don't show the user anymore, kinda hard to see what's been done over the time period they "were" connected. How can I tell Munin to...

Hi All, What is the best way to remotely monitor/administer a group of xen domUs across a network? We''re planning to deploy a few H/W servers with paravirtualized domUs. What are the best alternatives? What works and What doesn''t? Share your experiences.

G''day. I am wondering what the current best practice for building a single file out of distributed fragments is with puppet. Specifically, my problem: 1. Install munin-node on arbitrary machines. 2. Install ''munin.conf'' as a single file on one machine, containing a configuration stanza for every machine that munin-node is installed on. The current best practice looks to be: 1. In the munin-node manifest, create an exported ''file...

Just noticed that my munin installation stopped showing any data after the last "big" update. I installed a lot of updates for CentoS, but there was also a munin update coming from rpmforge. However, in yum.log there is no munin listed. But I'm sure I updated munin to 1.2.5-2.el5.rf as well. Does yum log on...

Hey all, I finally found some time to update the munin module and here it is. please configure your munin-nodes directory in: munin/manifests/init.pp prior to using this module. you also need ''file_splice'' a.k.a. the bracketeditor. see here: http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet-users/2007-June/003466.html and a slightly chang...

...ng some tutorials :P ) but the ''puppet language'' seems to be nice and clean. 2. The store configs and export syntax and systems seem kind of weird to me, it would be cool if you declare virtual objects and get them back as an array to use instead of ( as in David''s munin example) where you have to create local files. eg: node- @@munin-node( IP , name) server- array = Munin-node <<||>> for i in array: do stuff or pass this array to a erb template. IMHO this would make it easier to apply the same configuration data in different ways to variou...

The munin rpms from EPEL failed to install correctly on a particular machine. This is why # /usr/sbin/groupadd -r munin groupadd: Can't get unique system GID (no more available GIDs) # but I don't understand why this happens. Even after checking the man pages for groupadd and login.defs, I have bee...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi *! Has anybody a fix/workaround for this beahaviour? My Service[munin-node] is subscribed to the timestamp of a directory containing config-snippets like this: {{{ file{"/etc/munin/plugins": checksum => mtime, } service{munin-node: subscribe => File["/etc/munin/plugins"], # ... }}} When adding new snippets to the directory (usually via s...

I wrote a Perl script to poll `tc` for traffic control statistics (just bytes presently) for leaf qdiscs. The information is fed to either RRDTool or Munin[2], depending on what parameter is passed to the script. If the option for a RRD database is used, graphs[3][4] are written to disk for each ten second polling interval. If invoked via Munin[2], it handles graphing and samples at five minute intervals.

I''m trying to use a "case defined" statement to configure Munin to automatically create plugin links for packages that are defined by Puppet but the behaviour seems to be unpredictable. I have a similar setup for Samba which works, but the Postfix one doesn''t and I can''t see any difference between them. Can some explain to me how "case...

Does any one know or whether have someone done custom reports in puppet. Which will show the status of the servers, disk, cpu, load, pkg list, configs/files edited via puppet, how often a config file is updated, etc.. -- Deepak _______________________________________________ Puppet-users mailing list Puppet-users@madstop.com https://mail.madstop.com/mailman/listinfo/puppet-users
