Does anyone have a technique for performing an exec the first time puppetd runs but then reverting to refreshonly => true state for subsequent runs? The basic idea is: file { "/etc/foo": notify => Exec["bar"] } exec { "bar": command => "Do stuff to /etc/foo", refreshonly => true } Should I use a fact that is unset based on a

I''m working on a definition for activating/deactivating Apache modules on an Ubuntu system. Inside my Apache class I have this definition: define module($ensure) { case $ensure { enabled: { exec { "a2enmod": command => "/usr/sbin/a2enmod $name", logoutput => on_failure,

so here I am trying to track down why one of my execs isn''t working properly and I notice in the wiki[1]the option on_failure for logoutput.

Meanwhile the various pieces of info at links such as: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#nagios-host are just teasing me. Is there any actual documentation for this?

...t;rpm -Uvh" in same host group (or class), but for different packages/metapackages. I was no able, and I think, for replies I got from list, I will not... So, is puppet able to use many rpm install commands in same host? *Did not find the answer here: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#package 2.-) CFE logs are crazy... I need syslog or nagios and parse them myself... I''ve seen: http://www.devco.net/pubwiki/Puppet/PuppetView and looks very nice, but has puppet a sumary of what has done in the client with a simple "OK" or "KO"? (Obviously I won'...

Hi folks, I''m trying to get my feet wet in puppet-land. I''ve successfully installed a puppetmaster and client and managed to get them to do something (the sudo file-permission example as explained in the tutorials). Now I''m trying to do something a bit more complex using defines but nothing seems to happen anymore. Config files involved: ###### site.pp filebucket {

Hi, I''m still writing my djbdns module, I came to the following design issue with master and slave tinydns. Normally there is no such master and slave distinction in djbdns: all tinydns instance are equal. Usually one instance on one host is considered the master on, which the RR are changed, and when you need to propagate them, you rsync the datas to the other hosts, where they will be

...o a) pull files off a puppet client to the puppet master b) push those files out to other puppet clients I''ve been reading up on FileBucket and I don''t understand how I can achieve that, or if I''m on the right track. Whats at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#filebucket suggests that I''m not on the right track. Can anyone suggest of the right way to use filebucket to do this, or if there is something else I should be reading up on. My end goal for this is to build a /var/lib/misc/passwd.db and group.db on the puppet master (using nss_updatedb...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear list! While converting my config to modules, I''m applying puppet''s mechanisms to interact with and between modules.

I''m using puppet-0.24.8-4.el5 on CentOS 5.4. My problem is yumrepo isn''t writing the "name=" field to the repository files which causes yum to complain with the error: Repository ''local-CentOS-5.4-x86_64'' is missing name in configuration, using id I get this behavior on all of my yumrepo definitions. One of them looks like this: yumrepo {

Hi, I''m absolutely new to centralized server management, sorry sorry in advance for any stupid remarks. Looking on the puppet documentation, I mainly find a lot of info about how to manage the config files, but nothing about centralized control. So I''m wandering if I''m looking a the right software package for my needs. I want to be able to do the following from a

Is it possible to trigger a service restart without always forcing that service to be running? We shutdown mysql for about 30min every day to do backups, and I don''t want puppet to start mysql during this window. So I''ve removed ensure => "running" from the mysql service. But now notify => Service[mysql] doesn''t restart mysql. Is it possible to tell

Hello all, I''d like to have Puppet distributing one of your server''s (public) SSH keys, effectively doing the same as the ssh-copy-id command.

I had some questions come up today during the Puppet demo here: 1. Is there any way to apply different intervals to different classes? For example, we might want a security baseline manifest to run once a month, package installation files once/day, etc. Since we''re a brokerage, we also don''t want ANY system changes during trading hours. I guess we could cron killing the
