I have a working configuration using external nodes, but when I enable storeconfigs using either Sqlite or MySQL, nodes no longer get assigned their classes from the external nodes script. I''m currently using the 0.25.4-2ubuntu6 packages from Ubuntu 10.4. Disabling storeconfigs and restarting puppetmaster causes nodes to be assigned classes from the external nodes script. I''ve

Hello, I have this defined resource type which is working perfectly until I want an ssl an http vhost pointing to the same directory in which case the unique $servername variable became a singleton Do you have any idea how to get around this? I am pretty tired at the moment and cant think of any good solution. define vhost ($servername = "${hostname}.${domain}", $serveralias = [

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

Hi all, I''ve been looking for a good example for how one would build a module, but I couldn''t really find something that I liked, so I went ahead and tried to do it myself. The result is this: a git module (see attachment). Please have a look and comment on it, before I add it to the wiki. I especially want comments on the setup of the module itself, not so much on the git

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

Hi, I''m writing puppet modules since a couple of weeks now, so I''m still considering myself as a new comer in this field. It seems that modules I can find on the web or the recipe page on the wiki almost all use a design pattern where the module is shipped in one or several class(es) whose configuration are determined by "global" or nodes variables ala: module: class

We have embraced Hiera; we use the YAML configuration system currently and on the whole everyone finds it easy to use and intuitive. However, as our manifests have grown more complex, we have a need to "compile" multiple narrowly-focused classes together into different types of high-level roles. For example, we might have a "webmail" class that pulls together classes for

I attempted the following: resources { service: purge => true, noop => true } service { sshd: ensure => running; iptables ensure => running; } And got the following message: notice: Starting configuration run err: Found a bug: uninitialized constant Parse notice: Finished configuration run in 0.47 seconds When I remove the ''resources'' line, everything works

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Russ, Digant, *! Several times on the IRC channel I noticed people having problems getting to grips with the interaction of scopes when using template nodes[1]. Typically this looks thus: | node genericwebserver { stuff } | | node ''web01.example.com'' inherits genericwebserver { | $influence_genericwebserver =

I would like to have packages installed either in the early morning or whenever I manually choose to do so on a particular machine. I am trying to convert my existing configuration from cfengine so in that tool I had something like: packages: Hr03|ManualRun:: <package installation commands> This basically says to install packages if it''s either 3:00-3:59am or if

Hi, I''m still writing my djbdns module, I came to the following design issue with master and slave tinydns. Normally there is no such master and slave distinction in djbdns: all tinydns instance are equal. Usually one instance on one host is considered the master on, which the RR are changed, and when you need to propagate them, you rsync the datas to the other hosts, where they will be

Hi, I''m new to puppet and trying to get started using it just in local mode. My basic question is: how can i reference a static file within the module (eg in the module''s files/ subdirectory, as described in http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ModuleOrganisation). I suppose i could try using a full.absolute path to the file, but that seems to completely defeat the purpose

Ok, I''ve been reading and I have some questions about best practices: I understand that modules are to be self contained blocks that i can just drop in. Using best practices, how does this fit into the naming scheme? Classes are singletons. I think i understand this. I''ve been defining classes in /etc/puppet/classes, but then how does this relate to any modules i might want

Hi, [First, a quick introduction... I''m one of the sysadmins at Koumbit.org, and we''re evaluating puppet for managing our modest server farm. I''ve already started writing recipes and manifests and intend to share those with this community. Part of my time worked on this will be directly paid by Koumbit.] So we''ve got a few half-finished puppet modules here:

I would like to delegate access to puppet to other teams in our company. It has to be possible for them to: - create new recipes - doing some sort of check if their recipes / templates work. How should I do this without giving other teams the ability to create havoc? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this

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. I have the following part in puppet.conf: [master] storeconfigs = true dblocation = /var/lib/puppet/state/clientconfigs.sqlite3 dbadapter = sqlite3 Now every time a client (agent in puppet speak) is run I get one more connection to the

Hello, The Puppet footprint within my company is steadily growing, We took the basic steps to make it more robust (passenger + apache) but in order to meet the needs of a 24x7 shop I need redundancy. I''ve read the Reductive Labs WIKI about redundancy (http://reductivelabs.com/ trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/HighAvailability) but I was wondering if anyone has experiences (good or bad) using
