similar to: High CPU usage

I recently noticed that the Windows host where I installed the Puppet agent for testing was thrashing the CPU. The culprit ended up being Ruby.exe *32 - "Ruby interpreter (CUI) 1.8.7.334 [i386-mingw32]". This is actually being launched by the puppet-agent service in Windows. The CPU on the host was pegged around 50% all day long. When I shut down the puppet-agent it went down to a

Let me start by saying, I am a puppet rookie. I am trying to get a passenger module working and receive the following messages. I am trying to figure understand where the ''resource type '' should be? Or, defined? Is it another module that I should included under puppet/modules ? the message: _________________ ... debug: importing

Hi, I''m new to Puppet, but it looks very good, so far. We are going to use it for a multi-tier (DEV, QA, staging, production) environment which is consists of web, app, and database servers. I have a couple of suggestions for the Puppet documentation that may save others some time. First, it seems node names MUST be FQDNs (hostname and hostname. will not work). Since we are not using

I am trying to translate code from S-PLUS to R and R really struggles! After starting R with the foll. R --vsize 50M --nsize 6M --no-restore on a 400 MHz Pentium with 192 MB of memory running Linux (RH 6.2), I run a function that essentially picks up an external dataset with 2121 rows and 30 columns and builds a lm() object and also runs step() ... the step() takes forever to run...(takes very

Hello All, I''m using the "Branch Testing" approach documented at https://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/BranchTesting and am seeing an issue with certificates. On all clients, I can run puppetd --masterport=8141 successfully but see the following error when I run against the default (8140) port: err: Could not retrieve configuration: Certificates were not trusted:

Hi, i wanted to know how you handle case when classes or define need to communicate between them. For exemple i got an ftpd define and a apachevhost define. Both need to know the path where the vhost is set and this path is defined by the ftpuser home''s directory. How can i ask information from other define or other classes ? we allready seen that tag are not reliable as they

I just updated to 0.22.2 and am running into a strange issue. I''m starting puppetmaster, and seeing this in my error log: err: /puppetconfig/reporting/File[/Library/Puppet/Generated/Server/var/reports]/ensure: change from absent to directory failed: Cannot create /Library/Puppet/Generated/Server/var/reports; parent directory /Library/Puppet/Generated/Server/var does not exist err:

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:

I got tired of restarting my puppetmaster when it stopped responding and finally switched to mongrel last night. When running under mongrel, what sort of concurrent connection rates are people able to get? I dont know how many individual puppetmaster processes I should spawn, or how to tell when I should span more. Perhaps I need more than two, because this morning I had a look at how

Hey all- I am trying to set up branch testing as described at http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/BranchTesting , but am running into a few snags. I''ve set up an alternate directory for the testing branch config files, and have created a copy of everything stored under /var/lib/puppet and pointed the test server to that stuff. However, when I try to connect to the test

Hi, I''m working on a method to manage packages which require a reboot after being installed. I''m curious how other people are handling this problem. Consider the resource: pkg_deploy { "MacOSXUpdCombo10.4.9Intel.dmg": alias => macosx1049 } I''d like to only install the package under if the following conditions are met: - No user is logged into the

Does any one have a recipe for getting facter facts from ldap?

Hi, My environment is composed of ~250 workstations hitting a single puppetmaster server, which has been working fairly well up until now. The most recent change has been a migration of a lot of remote file copy objects which were previously handled with cfengine. client side puppetd calls to the puppetmaster.getconfig method are taking unreasonably long, on the order of 2-3 minutes. It

I have been working on adding some predicate functions to puppetlabs-stdlib that test things based on ''interfaces'' and related facts. The functions themselves seem to work fine in my manifest-based smoketests, but I am running into trouble that may or may not be due to my ignorance about rspec or Facter. Something needs to be done to initialize Facter because

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

Hi all, We''re getting close to release[1], so I''d appreciate it if people would start testing the current ''master'' branch with their repositories. I made quite a few internal changes, most of which shouldn''t even be noticed unless there are bugs, so just running a server and/or client under the current code would be a big help. I''m
