similar to: extlookup in 2.6.1 defaults

I''m trying to upgrade from 2.6.7 to to 2.7.6 and I''m running into an issue in my extlookup() calls. A lot of the variables which should be defined aren''t defined within extlookup.rb. I''ve tested 2.6.7 agent and 2.7.5 agent against the 2.6.7 master and 2.7.6 master. I adjusted extlookup.rb slightly to provide some debug output.

Anyone able to explain why "$fqdn" works and "$environment" doesn''t in: $extlookup_precedence=["%{fqdn}","%{environment}","common"] How to reproduce it: ----------------------------- - In "/etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp" : $extlookup_datadir = "/etc/puppet/manifests/extdata"

Hi, I have been trying to improve the coding of some of my puppet recipes and had some trouble so wrote this: http://blog.wl0.org/2011/05/thoughts-about-extlookup-in-puppet/ Comments on the web seem to indicate that extlookup() solves "all problems" but I don''t really see that and hence have proposed a possible way to keep the data closer together and make the extlookup()

Hi, I''m having a problem with extlookup not respecting the ''certname'' parameter[1].  When executing a puppet run with either the --certname or --fqdn parameters, it ends up using the specified SSL certificate and gets the correct node definition applied from the puppetmaster.  However, it still retrieves extlookup data using the node''s actual FQDN, not the one

Trying to use extlookup from within template i use <%= scope.function_extlookup("blah") %> but get the undefined method `function_extlookup'' error According to http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/templating.html#access-to-variables-and-puppet-functions-with-the-scope-object this should work.

Hi, Is it possible to use facts from external nodes via stored configs, based on a filter such as class? To illustrate, I provide the following use case ; class nagios::nrpe { # No such resource "ip". I''d like to use "ip" fact of any node that is assigned to class "nagios::server" $nagios_servers = Ip <<| class="nagios::server"

I''m trying to change the password complexity requirements in pam.d/system-auth using augeas. I can append the values (lcredit=-1, ucredit=-1, etc) onto the correct place, but if another value is already present (i.e. lcredit=-2), the onlyif match statement doesn''t seem to support checking regular expressions inside of strings. How do I check that any numeric value exists in the

I''m new to Puppet, and I''m a software developer, not a sysadmin, so be gentle. I have puppet managing some files via templates, and one of the template variables that needs to be plugged in is a password of sorts that shouldn''t be generally available. In particular, it can''t be stored in the manifest, as that''s stored in version control, and the

Running puppet 2.6.11 opensource on Red Hat 5.6 client. I cannot explain this logically but I have a directory structure like so: /etc/puppet/manifests/hiera/hostgroups/ with directories for each of my application areas like so: *clickz core devel dns icross iswap itch puppet test ubuntu* *What is weird is that if I put anything under the directory named "core", the ext

Does facter support NICs that are not named ethX? I happen to use custom names on my systems. Just a quick look at the code I don''t see why it wouldn''t but the behavior I am seeing is very different. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, Apologies if this is the wrong list, I am a first-time poster here. I have an experiment in which an output is measured in response to 42 different categories. I am only interested which of the categories is significantly different from a reference category. Here is the summary of the results: summary(simple.fit) Call: lm(formula = as.numeric(as.vector(TNFa)) ~ Mutant.ID, data =

Is there a way I can split a line in a manifest across multiple lines, ala shell style? ie: $include_postfix_module = extlookup("IncludePostfixModule", \ extlookup("IncludePostfixModule", \ extlookup("IncludePostfixModule", \ "",

I''m looking for a bit of best-practices here. Our puppet environment up-until-today has been owned and operated by IT Operations only. We''ve had a single ''production'' environment and our code has been managed in a local GitHub::FI install. We have ~14,000 lines of code in our PP files. We''re trying to make two changes to our environment... that may need

I''ve got this: file { ''/opt/sugarsync/tomcat/tomcat-home/current'': ensure => "tomcat-$config[''tomcat_version_server'']"; where $config[''tomcat_version_server''] was set with extlookup (the yaml one), by loading: --- tomcat_config: tomcat_version_server: 6.0.20-1 tomcat_version_libs: 1.0-1

I''m confused about this... https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib/ I see a lot of functions there that are the same as the ones that come standard with puppet. If I create a module and dump this stuff in there, what happens to the existing stuff? How does puppet know which one to use?

Hi all I have been pondering this for a while, but not yet seen a clean way to do it I have a few puppet classes (apache/ntp/mysql/bacula/nagios/etc) I would like to generate part of my bacula and nagios configs for each host based on which other classes that host belongs to (or to put it another way, I would like to export variables from classes which would be used by my bacula and nagios

I was wondering how to configure the puppet clients to only listen, not to periodically pull configs down from the puppetmaster. I''d rather push the configs out from the puppetmaster with puppetrun... At a guess I need to set runinterval to 0 in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello, I read and find a way (well, there seems to be several equal implementations) to collect the ssh keys of machines. However they all give only the choice to choose between the key formats. But is there a way to collect both keys of a machine, the rsa _and_ the dss key (and maybe the rsa1 too)? I didn''t find a way to solve this as

Hi list, Reading the thread "can a class require an other class?" it''s been mentioned that perhaps one way forward for the Puppet language is to phase out the include keyword in favour of parametrised classes. I''m thinking of my Puppet and the several levels of include chaining I use and I''m wondering how on earth that''d be possible. Maybe
