similar to: adding facts

I''m working with a pretty simple config at the moment to track down some issues I''m seeing with custom facts and plugins. I have factsync = true (default locations) and I have a simple fact in /var/lib/puppet/facts/ (actually it''s David''s netmask plugin) my pp file I''m testing with contains only: notice "netmask: ${netmask}" puppet -v

I have created my first ''fact'', first attempt at Ruby too, and configured the fileserver to server it but when a Fedora (5 or 6) client sync''s puppetd appears to hang. CentOS clients sync and use the new fact fine. Find attached the fact file and the output from ''puppetd --debug --factsync'' on a FC5 client is below. This is a 0.20.1 client and

Some time ago i sent to the list a problem i was having with facts on fedora core 6 and wasn''t able to find a solution at that time, but with the release of RHEL5 and CentOS 5 based on fc6 i have hit the problem again. i have written several facts to collect information about a clients network and i am also using the vmware fact from the wiki. i have separated my original fact into

Hello all, Samba 3.0.1 on Sun Solaris 5.9. I'm seeing both a share \\my_server\homes and a share \\my_server\<username>. For example: \\my_server\homes \\my_server\doejohn Or: \\my_server\homes \\my_server\doejane Both point to the home dir /export/home/doejane of user doejane. I want to get rid of the \\my_server\homes share and - in this case - only want \\my_server\doejane to

I found what the problem is but I am posting this so hopefully people don''t scratch their heads when this happens. I need to be able to configure different things depending whether I''m running on a system that has a Xen kernel or not.

Puppeteers, For some reason I have to assign my variable before I include my class for the assignment to ''take''. I though the ordering was immaterial.

Hi I''m trying to add extra facts to facter. The puppetd is running on Debian Etch Amd64 as Xen 3.1 guest. I''ve follow the Wiki on adding the facts. First I used relative path in the manifest and added "factsync=true" in client''s puppetd.conf. And then tested it with "puppetd -vt". But no matter what i tried, this error came: File paths must be fully

I have some facter file to distribute before running puppet on the platform. The problem is : how can i send the facter local.rb file so the rest of the .pp file take into account the new facts created ? ex: i have sudopath as a facter fact and one sudoers class that need that sudopath to work. How do you model that ? it seems puppet would have to rerun after the new local.rb is downloaded

Hi All Background: I am running Puppet to configure ESX 3.5 servers by NFS mounting the Puppet binaries and configuration from a shared server. This is to ensure VMware don''t come back refusing support for installing non standard software on the server. # ruby -v ruby 1.8.7 (2009-04-08 patchlevel 160) [i686-linux] # facter -v 1.5.5

I''m a newbie attempting to get a custom fact distributed to clients. I''ve followed the instructions at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/AddingFacts and based my first fact on a simple recipe. I''m having at least one problem and possibly more. 1) Puppet/facter fails to load the custom fact, complaining that "non- sh interpreters are not currently

I''m trying to deploy a rails app with no success.

My apologies if this is off-topic... On a centos6.4 system I installed 389 server from EPEL. It seems to work well enough. However I'm trying to script things, rather than do it via the GUI. So, for example, I want to add a new suffix: #!/bin/ksh -p pswd=$(cat ~/passwd) add() { echo "dn: cn=example,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config changetype: add objectclass:

In this case, I''d like to set a "Location" fact which represents the data centre a server is in. Cheers, James *********************************************************************************
