I''ve tried to implement puppetmaster High Availability (mon+heartbeat). Herefore, the puppet client and puppet master are running on both servers. When the puppet client starts up, it generates a certificate, public and private key for the machine it runs on. When the puppet master starts up, it changes something so that the puppet client have no valid certificate anymore (the

Hi When using puppetrun to trigger machines to get and apply their configuration, it will only trigger the machine when executing puppetrun for the second time: puppetmaster # puppetrun --host puppetclient puppetclient log: -- snip Apr 13 08:19:49 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08

Hi all, As most probably know by now, I''ll be in London and Brussels for the next week, starting Tuesday (well, I leave Tuesday but don''t arrive until Wednesday). That means I''ll hopefully get to meet more of you (I''m giving talks in London Thursday night and in Brussels, probably on Sunday morning), but it also means I''ll have limited access

Hi there, I want to manage some files with puppet that control the installation of packages in Gentoo (/etc/make.conf, /etc/portage/*). These files must be downloaded to the client before any package resource is processed, so they are installed correctly. Is there any way to do this? Possible solutions: 1. Include in *every* package require => [ list of files ] inside a case statement, so

I''m running puppet from svn - build 2537. I''ve got a functional configuration and am testing it on a couple of development machines prior to moving it into production. I noticed today that the machines are taking ~300 seconds to process their configurations, so i watched a run and saw that it''s recompiling all of the Packages every single time. The only thing

Hello, I''ve recently begun looking at Puppet as an alternative to Cfengine and I have a couple of questions. 1) Besides the information posted on the Puppet website, are there any critical differences between Puppet and Cfengine? 2) Does Puppet allow for client-specific file text manipulation. For instance, in Cfengine I can add a line of text to a file if the line doesn''t

I configured my rsync daemon to be restarted when the rsyncd configuration file changes. When the rsync daemon gets restarted by puppet, it listens on the same port puppetd does, so running puppetd again results in an error. The init script for rsync is small and can not be changed from puppet (all variables are declared within the init script and it only searches for the path where the rsync

Hi all, I''m looking at changing the operatingsystemrelease fact for Red Hat. Linux currently just uses the kernel release as the operating system release, but I''ve got a client who wants the release to have both the specific distro (e.g., AS or EL) and the release (e.g., 3 or 4). Will this particularly annoy anyone? Anyone want to help make the release string work on

Good day, all, bangert on irc wrote a patch to ensure the eix''s cache exists before querying it. I''ve extended this to verify freshness based on /usr/portage/metadata/timestamp and /usr/bin/eix itself. If you have a moment, I''d love for someone to test the patch. It''s against HEAD, but should apply cleanly against 0.22.4.

Hi, We''re trying to follow the instructions at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMongrel (Just using a single puppetmaster/mongrel instance and plain mod_proxy for now, instead of balancer one) We got past the "Server is not a class" error by modifying mongrel.rb We also kind-of got past the: /opt/bin/puppetmasterd:293: undefined method `daemonize'' for

Hi, I wanted to configure reporting in puppet. I came across the below links which says what needs to be added in config file to enable reports. But I was wondering how I view the visual report/graphs do I need to create my own script. http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ReportReference#rrdgraph http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ReportsAndReporting -- Deepak

Is there an easy way to list which puppet daemons a puppetmaster controls? ... and from that, is there a way of getting the puppetmaster to store a copy of their compiled configuration somewhere? Thanks, mike

Does any one know or whether have someone done custom reports in puppet. Which will show the status of the servers, disk, cpu, load, pkg list, configs/files edited via puppet, how often a config file is updated, etc.. -- Deepak _______________________________________________ Puppet-users mailing list Puppet-users@madstop.com https://mail.madstop.com/mailman/listinfo/puppet-users

Hi, I''ve setup my systems to do reporting as explained in https:// reductivelabs.com/cgi-bin/puppet.cgi/wiki/ReportsAndReporting, with tagmail defined as one of the report types - but I do not recieve any mail at all. I''ve configured a tagmail.conf file like this: all: root@localhost But the documentation mentions three options, namely sendmail, reportfrom,

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

Hi all, This has theoretically been a high priority for a long time, and I''m finally going to get it done, I think. Here''s my plan, and I''d appreciate any comments you might have on it. Currently, sections only have meaning internally, in that one can call ''config.use(section)'' to create any directories needed for that section. Additionally,

I turned on reporting the other day and I''m seeing alot of these when puppet runs. Especially during times when nothing is going on (middle of the night etc) Tue Dec 11 12:34:48 -0500 2007 //base/puppet/puppet::client/Service[puppet]/ensure (notice): ensure changed ''stopped'' to ''running'' It''s also quite odd that puppet when it runs it thinks

For those of you out there using export/collect (which we really need to come up with a better name for...), can you test the current SVN code? I''m mostly wondering if the performance is any better. To use it, you''ll have to remove your current database, since the database schema is significantly changed. I''m getting what looks like an additional 25% reduction
