hi,all I want set up a puppet HA structure. but if the puppetd can set more than one server address ,the work will be simple :D if one puppetmaster have error, the client can auto try the next. I think I can use the heartbeat or dns to do this same thing,but not so good. so I want know the puppetd can direct set in the configure file ? if not,will be add this option? -- Huang

Hi, I wanted to configure reporting in puppet. I came across the below links which says what needs to be added in config file to enable reports.

Hi Does anyone know if the following is supposed to work? ------------------------------------------------------ site.pp case $psi_rank { Devel: { import "Devel/psi_gfa/*" import "Devel/nodes" import "Devel/os/yum_update" } Prod: { import "Prod/psi_gfa/*" import "Prod/nodes" import

Our puppetmaster runs on a host with multiple interfaces connected to various private networks, with different hostnames for each IP. I''m trying to use $servername in modules to copy files over a private network, but this is always set to the public hostname of the server. That route is blocked by a firewall. Is there a way to use the server variable in puppet.conf in manifests?

All I am doing some testing and have a quick question. Do class and node names have to be unique? I define a node: node test { include test } and a class called test. When I run the test node and connect I don''t get an error but no configuration is applied to the node. Is this normal behaviour or a bug? If it''s normal behaviour should Puppet tell you about the

On the module organization wiki, we''re got the following statement: To control access to the files in modules, the fileserver configuration can contain an explicit declaration of a ``modules`` module:: ... however, I thought the fileserver couldn''t define module or any section that is in the module paths. Has anyone tried this? And if it doesn''t work, is there

(I know more questions... :-)) I know the default for puppetd is to check puppetmasterd every half hour, but my question does each puppetd check at the same time? Or does it depend when puppetd is started or like a cronjob does it run at the 1/2 hour and hour mark? Is there some randomness to the times they run? My point is if they all run at the same time then if you have a large amount of

I was playing around with the generate() function and was wondering if anyone was making us of it. The current way I''m attempting to use it is to determine what the homedir of a given user is. I have: --- $homedir = generate("/bin/sh", "-c", "grep ^${name} /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f6") --- which returns what I expect it to return except that it preserves the

I''m trying to write a wrapper definition for the file type to make it a bit smarter. I have a basic version working fairly well: define xfile($owner = root, $group = root, $mode = 644, $source, $backup = main, $recurse = false, $ensure = file) { file { $name: mode => $mode, owner => $owner, group => $group, backup => $backup, recurse

Hi, I''m a new puppet user (thanks !) and I''m just looking at moving my homegrown manifest structure into something resembling the best practise guide at : http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PuppetBestPractice. It seems as if the structure here doesn''t map to the default puppet layout (and thus doesn''t work with the standard puppet config

Hi all, As promised, 0.24.1 is out. Here''s the changelog: Updated vim filetype detection. (#900 and #963) Default resources like schedules no longer conflict with managed resources. (#965) Removing the ability to disable http keep-alive, since it didn''t really work anyway and it should no longer be necessary. Refactored http keep-alive so

Hello I''m wondering if anyone has looked into adding pkgsrc package management as a provider for Package? We use Joyent accelerators (zones on OpenSolaris) for our many of our production services and about a year ago Joyent switched from Blastwave to pkgsrc for userland packages. pkgsrc catalog - http://pkgsrc.se/ pkgsrc guide - http://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/ joyent pkgsrc

Hi all, I currently use puppet and cacti, and am in need of an alerting system for systems/services that are down. Alerts through cacti are a major pain, so I have begun looking at a small and simple tool called monit. Monit, however, seems to be doing a lot of things that puppet is already doing for me (such as checking if services are running and starting them if they aren''t, etc), so

First, I've been lurking and using dovecot for a few years now and I've always liked it, great piece of software! :) I've finally decided to clean up my act here and get virutal users and get postfix (2.3), dovecot (1.0.0) and deliver to play nice, using postfixadmin. I have it 99% there, but one thing is left: When I receive mails, deliver finds my virtual home dir and then tries

Hi, I have noticed that in the conf directory of the puppet gem there are a bunch of files such as: - init.d scripts for starting/stopping puppetd - sysconfig files for redhat - logrotate files .. etc Is there some automatic way of using these files or are they just example config files that we can install ourselves. thanks, Iain. -- Iain Pople Systems Interface Technical Lead University
