similar to: PC EU feedback: ability to remove all unmanaged resources

We have resources that, from time to time, are selected to be removed (unmanaged). When it comes to ssh keys, fstab... this leaves a lot of stuff behind that we don''t want. Is there a simple way to remove the unmanaged data so we can keep the systems clean. Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7612 The exported resources syntax: @@user { luke: ensure => present } Is concise and powerful, but very difficult to read. We should consider word-based syntax, e.g.: export @user { luke: ensure => present } And taking into account #7605, perhaps: export virtual user { luke: ensure => present } Please comment on the ticket or reply

Should this work? # --- remove any cronjobs that are not managed by puppet. resources { "cron": purge => true } I get the following error. Resources[cron]: Failed to generate additional resources: You must specify a title for objects of type Puppet::Type::Cron Ben

Hi, We''re using thin stored configs heavily to manage things like Munin and Nagios and we''re currently wondering what to do when nodes go away, or change considerably. If we get rid of a server then all it''s stored config is still present in the database, as well as it''s nagios and munin configurations. We created a script that iterates through the database

So I have the following: define nagios::service ( $nagios_template = ''service-template'', $host_name = $fqdn, $service_groups = '''', $contact_groups = $default_contact_group, $max_check_attempts = 3, $dependency = false, $dependent_host = $fqdn, $dependent_service = '''', $check_command = '''' ) {

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7604 import "/etc/puppet/manifests/nodes/*" Should import all manifests in subdirectories as well. Note that this conflicts with #4732, which proposes that Puppet globs act more like shell globs. Please comment on the ticket or reply here, whichever you prefer. Thanks! r P.S. This is in response to feedback from my "Improving the

I have the following define... define puppet::module_dir { if $name { include puppet file { "${puppetdir}/modules/${name}": ensure => directory, mode => 0755, purge => true, recurse => true, } } } I call it like so: puppet::module_dir { "main" } puppet::module_dir

Recently, the issue of copying file modes from remote sources was discussed on the puppet-users mailing list[1], although it equally applies to owner and group. One issue is what permissions to apply to newly created files when none are specified? Historically, Puppet has always copied the permissions from the file source to the newly created one. However, this causes problems on Windows[2]

I''m not sure if this has been posted previously, but I couldn''t find any information on it. I added a cron job via the cron type and it installed properly. Next, I removed the cron type from the manifest. The result was that, while the entry was no longer in the yaml file, the cron entry was not removed! Is this a bug, or the way that it is supposed to function? Thank you,

Hello Does anybody share how to roll-back configuration if puppet definition on host is change. For example Let''s assume we have host on which initial was web server and bunch of users. All this resources we configured throw puppet. node <some node> { <webserver difinition> <user1 definition> <user2 definition> <user3 definition> } At some

I have a situation where I''d like to perform some actions when a node is removed from a class. I have a few (homegrown) services that install ssh keys in authorized_keys and it''s possible that a node may have the service enabled and disabled during it''s lifetime. When disabled I''d like to clean up the ssh keys for security reasons. This brings up the broader

Hello, I am testing some schedule configurations and was wondering if I can use the schedule type in my own defines? As far as I can claim from my own tests, this is not possible? For example, the schedule "morning" does not work with my self-written define "my_crontab": ######################################### class crontab { schedule {"morning":

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

Hi, I have a file resource that brings files in the diretory "/usr/local/nagios/libexec" from source1 and I have a second resource file that should bring file in that same directory but from an other source. But the result is that only the files from file { "/usr/local/nagios/libexec": do exit in the directory. I tried remote and true. The resource file {

tl;dr: Windows manages permissions in a way that doesn''t always translate well to mode. We''re putting together a solution for this. Jump in the discussion. I wanted to get this conversation started. We''ve put a lot of thought into how the model should look and focused on ease of use up to more advanced scenarios. However I don''t feel that what we have is

hi everyone, so,first it seemed a trivial question to me, but since I could not find anybody being neither able to answer this question nor giving a short config example. after a few sleepless nights and exhausting all the reading and research. here I am sharing my problem with all of you, in the hope of some possible solution/sugestion. or is it that this is impossible?? below my

G''day. We recently found some issues with the `links => follow` setting in recursive file copying; the designed behaviour is that it should allow you to determine if the master serves a symlink in a module as a symlink, or as the content of the file that the symlink points to. The full details are here: https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12418 The short version is that toggling

Hi All, is it possible to delete cronjobs by patterns using ''cron'' resource? I.e. I want to make sure that there is no any cronjob that contains "/ path/to/some/unneeded_file" command in root crontab without knowing the command possible parameters and schedule. If no, any suggestions about how it can be performed are welcome. Thanks in advance

Dear R users, I am using Sweave. I would like to use the width option for the graphics : \begin{figure}[h!] \centering \includegraphics[width=0.7\textwidth]{x} \end{figure} How do I get this ? Thank you very much, Randall [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R users, I want to count the number of ones in a vector x. That's what I did : length( x[x==1] ) Is that a good solution ? Thank you very much, Randall [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
