From looking at the Facter code, it looks like the ''operatingsystemrelease'' fact is currently a mirror of the ''kernelrelease'' fact. I''d like to implement this fact so that it returns the major version of the operating system, eg: Debian Sarge: operatingsystemrelease => 3.1 Debian Etch: operatingsystemrelease => 4.0 RH...

Currently, facter returns the kernel version as both the kernel and operatingsystemrelease facts. I would like to change that so that on Fedora, operatingsystemrelease is the release number (5,6,7 etc.) or ''Rawhide'' ... are there any objections to making that change ? David

Hello, I am running puppet server version 0.25.4-2, and since Debian squeeze is the new stable release I would like to adapt some of my modules. I have a syslog-ng module, I would like to specify another template for my squeeze server. I changed my init.pp as follow : if ($operatingsystemrelease <= 5.0.8) { $syslog_template = "syslog/syslog-ng.conf.erb" } else { $syslog_template = "syslog/syslog-ng.conf-squeeze.erb" } [...] file { "/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf": ensure => present, mode => 644, owner => root, group => root,...

For the benefit of those running OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) or OVS, be aware that under 2.6.0rc4 facter doesn''t properly recognize OEL in /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/operatingsystemrelease.rb. A diff for a fix is below; probably not the best fix but if you need it work now, this''ll do it for you.

Hi. I have the following facts available: # facter | grep oper operatingsystem => CentOS operatingsystemrelease => 6.2 Now, if I wish to use conditionals on these facts, I have to do it like this: case $operatingsystem {} case $::operatingsystemrelease {} I''m puzzled as to why can''t I just use $operatingsystemrelease, and what do these two semicolons mean? Thank you. -- You recei...

Next idea, use the facter operatingsystemrelease variable, but I can''t find a resource to describe something like: if the $operatingsystemrelease is bigger/equal then 6.0.0 but smaller then 7.0.0 then provide source.list.debian6 if else $operatingsystemrelease is bigger/equal 7.0.0 then provide source.list.debian7 else do nothing Ma...

Hi all, I''m looking at changing the operatingsystemrelease fact for Red Hat. Linux currently just uses the kernel release as the operating system release, but I''ve got a client who wants the release to have both the specific distro (e.g., AS or EL) and the release (e.g., 3 or 4). Will this particularly annoy anyone? Anyone want to help ma...

I found that has been fixed in Fedora and RedHat which return the version ( like 5, 7, 8 etc.. ) but in CentOS, it still return the kernel version instead. ================= Barrow Kwan ThoughtWorks, Inc.

I''m trying to write a script that runs command based on version of Redhat OS. For example, if the RHEL version is 6.0, it will run command. I was able to write file read script in ruby that would read file and execute but it didn''t seem to work in puppet script. Has anyone done something like this? $redhat_version_file = "/etc/redhat-release" $redhat_version =

Just started a rollout of centos 6.x across our Puppet deployment (100-odd servers). what fact would people suggest I use to distinguish 5.x from 6.x (quite a lot of subsystems are different between major releases)? lsb* facts don''t seem to be present on centos 6 - is this an EPEL bug, or have they just been removed in Facter?

Hi, i want to use Puppet to install all packages from a webserver (no repository) .

Hello All, How do I specify a variable that has a space in it? I''m trying to setup a yum repo that has two different baseurl''s based on the product name ($productname). Default goes one way, but if the product is "PowerEdge 2650" then is a different URL. The thing is, that is only picking up the default. How should I specify the value with the space in the
