Hi, I''ve noticed that defining multiple facts in one file is possible, and puppet can make use of them correctly, but when trying to call with facter --puppet they are not shown, do I need something special to make them work as any other single custom fact? Master is running 2.6.7 This is a custom fact with two facts in it: [modules/foobar/lib/facter/foobar.rb ] require

Hi, I run into problems with the ipaddress fact using the latest Facter gem (1.6.4, 1.6.5) on SLES11. The versions and gems I use work perfectly fine on SLES10 SP3. The problem: running "facter" without arguments results in an error, even though the erroring fact "ipaddress" is ok. test:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL

Hi, Please could someone take a look at the below code and tell me where it is failing ? Facter.add(''syslocation'') do #confine :kernel => "Linux" setcode do name = Facter.value(''hostname'') case name when /^e(t|d|u|s|p|q)(p|v)(sol|lin)\d+/ "E DC" when

Hello! In going over some of the sample cases on the Puppet wiki, (specifically the Debian tips) I saw a pretty clear need for more facts. Is there a place to submit new facts? In this case, the definition of a variable for each node''s Debian Version seemed like an easy thing to introspect. The following is what I whipped up... please let me know if I''m doing

Not sure if this is another issue cropping up with 0.24.1 but I''m getting the following: info: Loading fact raid /etc/puppet/facts/location.rb:5: private method `split'' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `call'' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `value'' from

Is it normal that "facter --puppet" does not show the environment variable? is there a way to have it include it?

Hi, Is it possible to have an array as the output of a custom fact? And then to pass it into a template in Puppet? I currently have a fact that looks like this: Facter.add("exports") do setcode do case Facter.hostname when (/thishost/i): [ "/local", "/local2" ] end end end & a template like this: <%

For the benefit of those running OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) or OVS, be aware that under 2.6.0rc4 facter doesn''t properly recognize OEL in /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/operatingsystemrelease.rb. A diff for a fix is below; probably not the best fix but if you need it work now, this''ll do it for you. I''ve already filed a bug:

Hi. I''d like to use exception handling in my custom facts. For example, in plain Ruby: begin buildno = '''' bcrelease = open("/etc/BCrelease") while (line = bcrelease.gets) line = line.chomp buildno = $1 if line =~ /^Build:\s+(\d+)/ end bcrelease.close print "#{buildno}\n" rescue print "No

Hello all, I am currently trying to setup a Custom Fact that will can be used to determine the version of the Java JRE running on a machine, in order to use it in my manifests to ensure the proper JARS are distribured based on environment. I''m trying to use the java -version command and then capture the JRE release (eg "1.6.0_37"). No matter what I have tried, the output

Hi guys I have a custom fact envt, it was working fine but now I have to make some changes in it; puppet client''s hostname is of the type 1234qa-abc-de.local where 1234 can be any thing of any length.My custom fact should contain qa, ie I want to check in the first part(before the first -) of the hostname if there exists a pattern/word qa and if it exists then my custom fact for envt

Would anyone please assist me on this one? This fact seems to work, but it doesn''t return when called directly via facter --puppet noop, but the resulting facts end up in the reports. I''m at wits end with this. Thanks! <snip> utc_hour = Facter::Util::Resolution.exec(%q</bin/date -u +"%H">).chomp Facter.add(:noop) do setcode do

Hello, I''m new to puppet and facter. Initially we are planning on using facter/puppet to inventory machines (Mac, Ubuntu, and RHEL). We plan on writing a number of custom facts. Obviouly some of the facts will only be specific to some OSs. I know there is a "confine" method, but it confuses me. It seems the confine statement in some of the recipes and in the Turnbull book is

Hi, I''m rookie puppet user and I trying to establish simple Server-Client connection on configuration: Server: *Fedora F18*, Puppet 3.1.1 (installed by yum), Ruby 1.8.7 Client: *Debian 6.0.6*, Puppet 3.1.1 (installed by guide<http://shapeshed.com/setting-up-puppet-on-ubuntu-10-04/>), Ruby 1.8.7 Server sign client certificate with success but now I''m struggle with apply

Hi, I want to introduce "Proxmox" as new value in $::operatingsystem. "Proxmox" is based on Debian, so the normal value is currently "Debian". To change that, I just write a custom fact based on the facter fact "operatingsystem" Facter.add(:operatingsystem) do > ... > setcode do > ... > elsif

Hello, I''m trying to add an environment variable as fact like this : #export $FACTER_test="infof" #facter | grep test test => infof But my fact don''t synchronize with puppet master.

Hi, I can''t find a way to add a page on the wiki (i''m logged in but there is no edit button on the facter recipes page), so here is a recipe for DRBD. It has been tested on version 0.8.4. Can someone publish it on the web site? if FileTest.exists?("/proc/drbd") result = {} Thread::exclusive do File.readlines("/proc/drbd").each do |l| if l =~

Dear all, I have a custom fact, that reads a file and then generate the values dynamically based on the file content. It''s something like this: inFile = "/home/admin/OSs.txt" > gos = {} > > if File.exist?(inFile) > open(inFile, ''r'').each do |line| > next if line =~ /^\s*(#|$)/ > parts =

I need to create a custom fact based on a parametric information (I need to get the IP of another machine knowing the hostname, the machine name could be different for different nodes so I need it parameteric and I recover the machine hostname from a hiera, but for the purpose of the question it could also be a data in the module definition). I''m installing a cluster and need to get

Yes, it's a constant register. Because the instruction cannot contain an immediate value, a constant value may be stored in a constant register, and it's defined _before_ the program starts by
