Hello there. Just to let you know i have just put in production mode puppet on 41 freeBSD 4.7 virtual servers (yes not real servers but "jailed ones"). I had some little problems with facter at first but i have manualy upgraded the servers that where affected by the little "facter does not read his facts" problem i had. I should have missed something in my deploiement.

Hi, I''ve just changed my debian preseed configuration to install the debian unstable package of puppet v0.22.1. As part of the preseed I have a late command that clobbers the /etc/init.d/puppet file into using the puppet standalone program and not the puppetd (as this is what I''m using). Since the upgrade to 0.22.1 every boot hangs during the initd. Going into standalone mode

Hello >From my understanding, modules are not autosearched. So, if I have: include ssh ... then puppet will look for a module names ssh and class named ssh defined in /modules/ssh/init.pp Moreover, if I have: include ssh::global ... then Puppet will for class global defined in /modules/ssh/init.pp or /modules/ssh/global.ss. Is that correct? Or am I leaving out some imports

Hi all, I''m trying to work more on the development page[1], and I''m having some trouble. It''s not really with the page per se, but rather with trying to get a handle on Puppet''s development process. Currently, my development work has focused on generally short-term goals: Fixing known bugs, providing features that clients have paid for, or providing

Hello folks, Im trying to migrate from static nodes-definition to external nodes definition. My script looks like this stolen from http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ExternalNodes: {{{ #!/usr/bin/perl -w use warnings; use YAML qw( Dump ); use Switch; #initialize vars our @classes; our %parameters; Function to fill @classes and %parameters with correct values .... print Dump( {

I am attempting to move our test puppet installation from looking for node information in a manifest to LDAP. I followed the instructions at: https://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/LdapNodes and was able to get the puppet schema loaded into our LDAP. I can now query LDAP and modify/load data without any issues using the OpenLDAP tools. e.g. ldapsearch -h ldapdev1.domain.com -x

I''m in the process of creating Puppet classes to install Munin via Yum on my RHEL4 hosts. Before Yum can be used as a provider, it obviously needs to be installed. I''ve tried requring the Yum package in the Munin classes but I still get an error about "Provider ''yum'' is not functional on this platform". Is there an easy way to require the yum class

Is it possible to install a solaris streams package with puppet? As some of my machines are not allowed to be a nfs client, I transfer the bunch of packages to these clients with the file type and puppet:// ... If the packages are in filesystem format there can be hundreds of files within large packages. It takes a huge amount of time to transfer all of them. So I''ve changed them into

So, the usual problem -- we want to be able to test our manifests before putting them into full-scale no-holds-barred oh-shit-we-broke-teh-intarweb production. The two possible solutions I''ve considered so far are: 1) Set a tag on objects we only want to be run on our test machines, and run Puppet on the test machines with "please run objects tagged ''test''".

Hello, I want a simple operation in a puppet node like restarting the ssh service if it was stopped. My site.pp is simple as this: import "services/*" node default { include ssh } The services directory as a ssh.pp : class ssh { service { ssh: ensure => running, subscribe => File["/etc/ssh/sshd_config"] } } I''ve stopped the ssh service in the

This was a fun one to track down... I was trying to use the append_if_no_such_line script from the wiki and it was working fine EXCEPT when I threw a notify at it. The notify appears to completely ignore both unless and onlyif within the exec for some reason. If I put the same test in the actual command line, it works fine. Example: unless => "/bin/grep -Fqe ''$line''

In the normal override method, you can change the value of a parameter, but can you unset a parameter? file { "/etc/somefile": mode => 644, owner => "dude" } File ["/etc/somefile"] { mode => unset } ??

Hi all, I have a situation where I want to use the same template to create two different files in two different classes. I''ve tried to lookup some information on what is possible with templates, how advanced you can get, but haven''t found much. I guess it''s one of the areas where I should contribute to the docs - once I figured out what I can do, that is...

I''ve converted all of the inline docs over to restructured text, and I''ve got them all up on trac: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/FunctionReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ReportReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ConfigurationReference Please let me know if you find any
