...nodes as containers for classes no variables defined in nodes Of course it is still possible to define resources and variables in nodes. But the variables will not be visible in any class scope and cannot be used to implicitly configure classes. Comments and corrections welcome. --vagn results of running the three scripts: vagn@nika:~/puppet-nika/patterns$ ./01_config.pp notice: Scope(Class[main]): puppet version: 2.7.2 notice: Scope(Class[Legacy]): var1_global is global warning: Dynamic lookup of $var2_base_node at /u0/home/vagn/puppet-nika/patterns/01_config.pp:21 is deprec...

I''m running Puppet 2.7.1 on the master as well as the agent and just received a new error which doesn''t actually reference a module or a file, so I''m somewhat stuck as to how to debug this. Any pointers? The error is err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Could not intern from pson: Could not convert from pson: Could not find relationship target

Hi all, I am working on rewriting my entire puppet environment and try to ''fix'' ''Dynamic lookup'' as it will be deprecated in some time, but even after reading quite some docs and on the forum, it''s not really clear to me. What I have read so far, is that each variable must be fully-qualified or parameterized in a class. As a quick

Dear all, I''m trying to do this. Say for example, I want this link: "liblcgdm.so -> liblcgdm.so.1.8.0" to be present on the client only if "lcgdm- libs-1.8.0-1sec.sl5" is already listed. I already have this to create the link: file { ''liblcgdm.so'': ensure => symlink, name => ''/opt/lcg/lib/liblcgdm.so'',

This may have been asked before, if so, please excuse me and point me to the right direction. What I want to do is to define a hash table with multiple key->value pairs. I would like to pass this variable to a file template and generate a result file with all the mappings listed. Based on what I read, I need to do it in a definition. But does Puppet supports loop over a hash? Any help would

We have often the Problem that some files need to be checked for updates faster than the cycle of the puppet agent. I try to solve this with a script which tries to download the files directly from the fileserver of the puppetmaster. So far i couldn''t get it to work. I don''t know if i got the URL right, i did not find any examples on the REST API documentation for the

I''ve got this: file { ''/opt/sugarsync/tomcat/tomcat-home/current'': ensure => "tomcat-$config[''tomcat_version_server'']"; where $config[''tomcat_version_server''] was set with extlookup (the yaml one), by loading: --- tomcat_config: tomcat_version_server: 6.0.20-1 tomcat_version_libs: 1.0-1

Hi, I''m quite new to Puppet.. I''m wondering if someone could point me in the right direction regarding the best way to manage a temporary requirement within Puppet? The scenario is, every server in our estate of Debian machines requires some monitoring software which is not provided as a Debian package. So we have a Puppet class, monitor::install which we include to distribute

Hi I''m having some trouble with the following setup: node ''serverA'' inherits server-defaults { include myApp::install } node ''server-defaults'' inherits default { $sudoenv = ''custom_server'' } node default { $sudoenv = ''default'' include sudoers::config } class sudoers::config { file {

hello puppet list My puppet server is now working quite wonderfully. Thanks go out to all who have assisted in getting it to this point. At this point in time my config is now correctly installing packages according to arch,os and release. Centos is working quite well as of now, but I am attempting to get the ubuntu side of things to work as well. I am frankly more familiar with RHEL under

So I discovered yesterday that if puppet changes the gid of a group it doesn''t go through the file system and update them with the new correct gid (at least this was the case on RHEL5 and client puppet v2.6.16 and puppetmaster 2.7.12). Now I thought that it might be possible to have puppet execute something like find /home/ -group <old_gid> | xargs chgrp groupname. However
