similar to: Environment specified by external nodes ignored

Hi, I just added an external classifier script, and things are not working as I expected to. Trying to read documentation about ext.nodes and searching the archives I couldn''t come up with any useful results. My classifier script outputs: --- YAML --- classes: - geodns::production::backend environment: production name: z01-06-02 parameters: puppet_server:

Hi all, I am using puppet with an ENC script. In this scripts YAML output the environment (generally "production") is set. For testing purposes I would like to start puppet runs from the cmdline of a managed host like: $ puppet agent --onetime --no-daemonize --verbose --no-splay --environment development The problem is the --environment Parameter is not being used if an environment

Hi, Why doesn''t puppet resource group tell me who belongs to the group? Given the group such as: mg_team:x:501:smruph, cosman, msmith, mhankey With the command: puppet resource group mg_team only returns: group { ''mg_team'': gid => ''501'', ensure => ''present'' } I was expecting: group { ''mg_team'':

Hi There, I''m implementing puppet for a large scale Enterprise, with a lot of sites and a lot of different setups (for about 1500 Linux and Solaris machines). Now, the time has come to get some management attention, and of course, the first question I''ll have is who else is using puppet.... So I thought it Worth''s a try to ask - who is using puppet in a large scale

So we run puppetd as a long running ruby process on the hosts. When we update a fact that gets auto sync''d to the host it seems when puppetd wakes up and starts its catalog run it doesn''t re-sync the facts. It you run it standalone it will or if you restart the service then it will do the right thing. Do other people see this? Or have you all gone to running out of cron?

I want to manage cronjobs as a " file " in solaris through puppet and not using the puppet cron resource. I will be managing the file /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root. I want the cron file to be same across all servers except some servers will have additional cron entries. How can I append to the file /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root , something like appendifnosuchline in cfengine? Can

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

The file{} type can do all of the following: * manage single files * manage directories * manage symlinks * manage recursive file copies The intersection of all these bits of functionality makes it difficult to understand exactly what is going on when you''re new to Puppet, and even experienced users often don''t know how combining symlinks/content management is going to work.

Hello... I wanted to be able to startup an EC2 instance with one command and have a fully functioning server without having to shell into each new instance and configure the bits to allow puppet to finish the configuration. Here are some notes I came up with for bootstrapping an ec2 instance with puppet using Ubuntu 10.04. I left out a lot of things about creating and running custom AIM

Could I use my local laptop as a puppet master, and only start up the puppetmaster when I have a change I want to send over to the nodes?
