Hello, setting up the newest OpenStack Grizzly release seems to be really straight-forward. Red Hat has put together all support for this at http://openstack.redhat.com/. I've documented installation, post-install config tweaks, how to add a few ready-to-use guest images and links to a few gotchas on the following wiki page: http://jur-linux.org/testwiki/index.php/CloudLinux/OpenStack

Hi All Background: I am running Puppet to configure ESX 3.5 servers by NFS mounting the Puppet binaries and configuration from a shared server. This is to ensure VMware don''t come back refusing support for installing non standard software on the server. # ruby -v ruby 1.8.7 (2009-04-08 patchlevel 160) [i686-linux] # facter -v 1.5.5

I just started getting this error on some machines after a yum update from centos 5.2 to centos 5.3. Does anyone know what it means? Since I''m not a ruby person, I''m not sure how to debug this, but it looks to me like facter is having trouble parsing information about my interfaces. # facter /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/ipmess.rb:19: uninitialized constant

int he example below I run facter looking for the fact "sp_serial_number". as you can see, the command facter sp_serial_number returns nothing, but the fact is there and is returned when just running facter and grepping for the fact. Some fact seem to work and others do not. any ideas? marcuspro:~ allan$ facter --version 1.5.7 marcuspro:~ allan$ facter sp_serial_number marcuspro:~

I see the instructions for creating custom facter recipes here: http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Adding_Facts and in this thread, James Turnbull suggests that Facter might some day support other languages besides ruby: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/8c127ae8898d3bcf/c5ca551b77c4eb67?lnk=gst&q=facter+perl#c5ca551b77c4eb67 He writes:

Hi, I run into problems with the ipaddress fact using the latest Facter gem (1.6.4, 1.6.5) on SLES11. The versions and gems I use work perfectly fine on SLES10 SP3. The problem: running "facter" without arguments results in an error, even though the erroring fact "ipaddress" is ok. test:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL

Is there a repository of Facter plugins that people have made? I''m working on a few that i wouldn''t mind sharing when complete.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all We''re currently looking at the next release of Facter and the future direction of the tool. I''d like to try and prompt some discussions on facter and what people want from it. As a starter here''s some (although not all) of the ideas we''ll be working through: 1.

Hi all, I am creating a recipe for rhel boxes which needs to determine what type of install is present (server or client). I thought I would use the facter fact lsbdistid for this purpose but when I run "facter lsbdistid" from the command line nothing is returned. If I just run facter and grep for lsbdistid, what I am looking for is returned. Does anyone know why this might be?

I could swear this worked fine earlier.. Now facter, and hence puppet, do not see the domain name anymore: What could cause this?

Hi, I''m attempting to move from 0.24.x to 2.6.x :) trying to fix all those parts that have changed, and found that the use of plugins we are doing is probably not the best approach hoping you can help me with comments regarding this use case. In our working 0.24.x environment we had to make use of plugins to add an attribute in the package.rb, something like: *newparam(:ignoredeps)*
