Hello all. I am using the munin module for a while now, I think that after the upgrade to puppet and puppetmaster 0.23.2 (or 0.23.1) it simply stopped working. Were there any changes to the realizing and exporting of resources? What could prevent this module from stopping to work. What happenes is that new hosts (munin::client nodes) do get stored in the database, but the munin::host does not

Hello all. Probably this question has already been posed in the context of another software, but I am unable to find it. I would like to implement a module which should manage munin-clients as well as the munin-server. Here is what I am thinking about implementing: - There are two classes: munin::client and munin::server - munin::clients'' configuration will be managed automatically.

Hi there, I have a strange problem with the exported ressources in the munin module I wrote. See: http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet-users/2007-June/003179.html For some reason it stopped working. On the munin::host I get the error that: err: Could not retrieve configuration: Exported resource File[munin_def_XY_4949] cannot override local resource The munin::host is also a

hi,guys I''m test the resources export and collect , OS is Debian etch and sarge, puppet server and client version all of the 0.23.2 ; the db is MySQL-4.1 My test code is like this. node ''b'' { @@file {"/tmp/a": ensure => present ,content => "test"; } } node ''a'' { File <<||>> } I run puppetd on

I''m very interested in the way that puppet appears to be able to generate nagios configurations though I can''t seem to find any documenation on how it works: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/naginator is clearly a placeholder page... Meanwhile the various pieces of info at links such as: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#nagios-host are just teasing me.

I''ve been thinking about how to make Puppet a killer app, and I think there is one specific thing that could be done to help make that happen: People using Puppet now to consistently state what they *really* wish Puppet could do for them -- the recent thread around Puppet on Windows is in that vein, but it''s not specific enough. For example, I''d like to know what

Hello dear list. First of all thanks to all the developers for the great work on puppet. After using it for a while, there is not better tool to manage a network! I have a problem with the $processor fact, which seems to be either not there or ignored at all. I try to implement package deployment for the Macs (Intel vs. PowerPC) as described here:

Hey all, I want to write a NFS module. Before I start, I thought I''d ask: Does someone already have such a module? May that person share it? What I want to do (have) is: - configure (different) exports on many NFS-Servers - configure NFS-Clients to mount some or all of those. Thanks, udo.

Hey all, i have attached a module which installs SSL-Root-certificates in Debian and Darwin. One thing is left to do for darwin: check whether the certificate is installed already. Until I have figured out how to do this, The test is rather simple. There is a class called dfncertificates defined in this module which gives you a hint how the module is used. Have fun, comments are welcome. udo.

Hello all, I have set up a public svn repository with some facts that we have written over time: https://svn.ikw.uni-osnabrueck.de/dav/ikwadmin/public/puppet/facts/ (yes, it is svn). Now, I was wondering where to document this on the puppet-wiki (or should it rather be the facter-wiki) http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/tags/facter%2Crecipe does not give any clear hint on this. Maybe I

Hey all, it seems that the Ticket section of Puppet''s homepage does not work. Searching and Listing of Tickets works fine, showing an individual Ticket shows stack-traces. What is wrong there? Thanks, udo.

Hello all. There is some strange thing going on with our OS X clients. We have created a package which is run via SystemStarter. What it does? It parses /etc/fstab and mounts the NFS directories mentioned there. This is needed since we want to have static mounts and the NetInfo-automounter combination does not do static mounts (even with ttl=0 set for the mount, which is supposed to do a

Hey Folks, I''m just starting to look into Puppet though am finding it a bit confusing as to how to get it setup on the network I administer. At the moment it is a combination of RHEL 4 and SLES 10 boxes with windows and novell also. I know that windows / novell is beside the point though am wondering how to get puppet setup on the RHEL and SLES side of things. Any good howto''s

Hi all Luke and I have been discussing the wiki and how its future development might pan out. As a result I thought I''d canvas people for feedback. Currently the wiki''s layout and structure is fairly ad hoc and it''s a mix of wiki mark-up and REStructured Text (RST). We''d like to make it more "manual" like or at least move a significant portion of

So I''m revisiting puppet''s management of nagios now that 0.25.1 is out and I want to say thanks for the updates to all the nagios types. However, there is one huge, gaping hole that''s been asked about before in 2 different threads but that''s never been addressed: object inheritance. For it to work, it requires the object being inherited from to have a

Hello there, I have come to a situation where I would like to mix 2 approaches to create the contents of a file. Here is what I have: a module ''sudo'' which manages a hosts /etc/sudoers file: init.pp: class sudo { case $operatingsystem { Debian: { package { "sudo": } } } file { "/etc/sudoers": mode => 440, content =>

Hi gang, Is it possible to test if a particular resource has already been defined? I''d like to do something like this: if !Host["$fqdn"] { host {"$fqdn": ip => "$ipaddress_eth0" } } Essentially, test to see if there is no Host resource defined for the current server and if not, add a host entry for itself using the IP address of eth0. Possible?

Hello everybody. I have a question about removing exported resources. How is this done? Does it happen automagically? If I do: @@file{"/tmp/bla": content => "blahs content", ensure => present, } and thus export "/tmp/bla" to another host does it vanish by itself as soon as I remove the definition, or would I need to state something like:

Hello everybody, I have updated the puppetmaster from 0.22.4 to 0.23.0 (and today to 0.23.2). Although ''dbmigrate=true'' is turned on AND the puppetmaster is saying it migrates the databse at startup, this does not happen. When it should store configs, I get the error: Could not store configs: Mysql::Error: #42S02Table ''database.resource_tags''

Hi all, I just stumbled over a huge rails.log in /var/log/puppet on the puppetmaster. It is full of DB statments which seems to point to the fact that puppetmaster''s rails environment is set to development. No problem, I thought, set the system''s RAILS_ENV to production make it available to the master daemon and restart it. Unfortunately, this does not work. I searched
