When I say busybox it''s actually VMware ESX server which seems to use busybox (which I guess is the case a number of other software appliances) . Reason for wanting to install puppet is to run the cli tools to create nightly vmware snapshots. I''m happy to give it a go (and add the docs to the wiki) but I''m not too sure at this stage how big a task this might be and what,

Hi all. We have a bunch of RHEL servers running Puppet. They are also connected to our Red Hat Satellite server. Currently we don''t have any master documentation system that stores all relevant information (i.e. type of server, hardware info, linux configuration, etc) about the servers. So what I''d like to do is implement some sort of system that can hold all this information.

Does anyone have a technique for performing an exec the first time puppetd runs but then reverting to refreshonly => true state for subsequent runs? The basic idea is: file { "/etc/foo": notify => Exec["bar"] } exec { "bar": command => "Do stuff to /etc/foo", refreshonly => true } Should I use a fact that is unset based on a

All, I''m trying to figure out the best way to estimate the amount of memory usage that will be taken up by Mongrel and I''m hoping that you have some estimates that can help me. I''m currently estimating the following: Memory Required = Number of running puppetmasters * size of manifests * number of clients managed The mongrel model doesn''t seem to *ever*

Hello, I am not sure if I trigger a bug and if so it could also be in ruby sqlite3 backend. However, maybe I do something totally wrong.

We have successfully installed puppet on a CentOS Server, but I am battling with a deployment. It has to do with grid software. The repository gets created, then begins installation. The problem is that it just hangs - no errors, no network activity. I can see puppet is running, but nothing it being updated. Any pointers ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

My custom external nodes script sets the environment variable, but Puppet ignores it. For testing, I have a manifest that deploys this template to a file: environment = <%= environment %> The output from my external nodes script: --- classes: - devhost environment: development parameters: memcached_memory: ''32'' But running "puppetd --test" results in the

hi, i''m trying to set up my puppetmaster infrastructure with multiple puppetservers behind load balancers in each of our datacenters. i''m using 0.24.6. i''ve read the howto on puppet scalability, and i think i''ve got the ssl config working correct, but i''m noticing that when puppetd is used to build a puppetmaster, some of the files in $vardir/ ssl

Hi, I''m running multiple vservers and have some aspects managed via puppet. I noticed that puppetd consumes from 20 to 60 mb RAM and the longer the process runs, the more RAM it takes. It looks like 60MB is the top what I measured. Having a couple of vservers (11 in my case) this can already take up to 500MB just for puppet! I''m wondering if there''s any downside in
