similar to: cfrun equivalent

I am running puppet 2.7.9 and using the pip provider. The package gets/is installed but puppet installs it on every run. Do other people run into this. I tried search bugs and the group and have not seen any mention of it. Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I was made aware of puppet a few weeks ago and I really like the way things are working. What I liked at cfengine was the capability to push content from the central server to any node. There was no need to open a port from DMZ or any other remote system to the central server. Is there a similar way within puppet? How is this solved by other

I would like to have packages installed either in the early morning or whenever I manually choose to do so on a particular machine. I am trying to convert my existing configuration from cfengine so in that tool I had something like: packages: Hr03|ManualRun:: <package installation commands> This basically says to install packages if it''s either 3:00-3:59am or if

Hi, I just want to know what the state of the Debian packages is? I''ve downloaded (and is currently testing with) the packages from http:// reductivelabs.com/downloads/packages/Debian/ They seem to miss some important stuff such as init scripts and puppetrun, and they hasn''t all the dependencies defined (eg. ruby). From the info part of the packages I can''t see

I''m trying to wrap my head around these files... do both of them need to reside on the client and master? are there any docs that describe these files and what all the option/ sections are and what they do?

I''m thinking about how to set up the processes for Production puppet runs now. Being ultra-conservative here, we''d like to see what would happen before pressing the red button. I can run in noop mode, and everything is evaluated but nothing is done. A YAML report magically appears on the Puppetmaster which my script parses and spits out something the management can read

Hi, I''m running multiple vservers and have some aspects managed via puppet. I noticed that puppetd consumes from 20 to 60 mb RAM and the longer the process runs, the more RAM it takes. It looks like 60MB is the top what I measured. Having a couple of vservers (11 in my case) this can already take up to 500MB just for puppet! I''m wondering if there''s any downside in

Hi, I have a Gentoo server running puppetmasterd from Puppet 0.24.1 and a Ubuntu server running puppetd from Puppet 0.23.2. I have added listen=true to the [puppetd] section on the client and run puppetd --debug. I then run puppetrun --debug --host hostname on the puppetmaster server. This is the output I get: Puppetmaster: # puppetrun --debug --host hostname Failed to load ruby LDAP library.

I am trying to setup puppet for use with ldap. Following the page (http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/LdapNodes ) I run ruby -rldap -e ''puts :installed'' with success, however ruby - rpuppet -e ''p Puppet.features.ldap?'' fails with ruby: no such file to load -- puppet (LoadError) I imagine that it is related to how I have things installed. I am

I just started digging into puppet and it looks like puppet is using a pull model. You have a master server and clients talk to it to get config info. Is anyone out there using a push model? If not, why not? Are there security reasons you would use one over the other? It seems that cfengine also uses a push model, so I wondered if this is a "standard" or if there are specific

I''m trying to get puppetrun to work, without luck so far. I have my puppetmaster and clients working fine with the clients polling the master. Now I want to be able to force an update. Using version 0.23.2 On the client I set listen=true and created the namespaceauth.conf file. Restarted puppetd and it appears fine. On the master I run puppetrun as root and get root@plane:/etc/puppet#

I''m using puppet 0.24.7-4. I have a situation where I have some very long running puppet runs in order to do upgrades (removing applications from load balancers gracefully, et cetera). My puppet runs triggered via puppetrun are finishing successfully: Jun 8 20:31:29 puppetd[10178]: Finished catalog run in 345.18 seconds Puppetrun itself is timing out: err: Connection timeout calling

Hi, I''ve setup my systems to do reporting as explained in https:// reductivelabs.com/cgi-bin/puppet.cgi/wiki/ReportsAndReporting, with tagmail defined as one of the report types - but I do not recieve any mail at all. I''ve configured a tagmail.conf file like this: all: root@localhost But the documentation mentions three options, namely sendmail, reportfrom,

Hi When using puppetrun to trigger machines to get and apply their configuration, it will only trigger the machine when executing puppetrun for the second time: puppetmaster # puppetrun --host puppetclient puppetclient log: -- snip Apr 13 08:19:49 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08

Hi all, I''ve got a new class in the current code, which I''ve been calling Configuration but Matt reasonably thinks is horrible. He is recommending the name Manifest, and I figured I''d see what others thought. The point of the class is to function as a resource container -- it keeps a reference to all of the resources we''re managing, and knows how to

What is required to allow running puppetrun as a normal user? The documentation implies that puppetrun has to be run as root to get access to the SSL certificates. What permissions need to be set to allow normal users (or a group of users) to perform puppetrun? Is it possible to create a more-public certificate that can only be used for puppetrun? We could use the ability to have developers

How can I install a lot (more than 800) of APT packages using an easy way in puppet? I mean, using some file.txt where I put there the packages I want to install and my package resource get the list . Is it possible? Or do I have to put all packages in the package resource? regards, Israel. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed

hi I''ve read about PuppetReporting at the Trac website. Apparently you are working on integrating the benchmark tests for every type in ruby. Do you have any idea when this will all get implemented? This is a crucial part (and actually a necessary feature) in the configuration management system we have set up using Puppet. grtz Koen Vereeken
