I am working on building a facter tag based node classifier similar to https://github.com/jordansissel/puppet-examples/tree/master/nodeless-puppet/. However, I have run into an issue where I cannot use puppet''s require file ability to push the yaml file containing the facts file to the client because it would require two runs of puppet to pickup changes. Consequently, I have written into

Hi all We''ve just released version 0.3.4 of the puppet-module tool used to create and retrieve modules from the Puppet Labs Forge (http://forge.puppetlabs.com). You can update using Ruby gems: $ gem install puppet-module There are several important changes in this release: * Add ability to install modules with hyphens * Add check for symlink when installing * Install modules to their

Seeing ''SSL_read'' errors being logged by puppetmaster. Anyone know what causes these or how to correct? They''re sporadic, not happening all the time or on all puppet runs. /var/log/puppet/masterhttp.log [2011-07-25 10:00:10] ERROR OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_read:: internal error /var/log/messages Jul 25 10:00:10 cmd-box puppet-master[22572]: SSL_read:: internal error

Hi, In a file resource I want to be able to specify multiple template contents. If the 1st template doesn''t exist use the 2nd listed and so on. Much like how the source attribute works. Basically this: file { "/tmp/somefile.txt": ensure => present, content => [ template("somefile-$fqdn.erb"),

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.

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 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 Experts, I remember we had this discussion before, but could find it. Can I run a command to generate a "Compiled catalog" for a specific node (on the master node)? And apply this on the client node? What are the limitations for doing this? Basically we have special handling for the webserver/CA part of puppet. Thank you very much! -Yushu

Hi all, I''m looking for background information about how bug #7127[1] should be fixed: prerun_command don''t stop puppet on error I think there''s general agreement that if the prerun command fails, then the catalog should not be applied, but the report should be sent, and the report''s status should be "failed". However, what about the post-run

I''ve been messing around with Puppet on a VM on my personal desktop. It looks descent. I was wondering what kind of load this thing would have managing about 400 nodes. Does this thing require a beefy server? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, I have 680 hosts reporting into a central puppet server. Yesterday I made a change to site.pp and the nodes/foo.pp and nodes/ bar.pp files to push out some new files (a script to enable LDAP) and it seems that only a handful of stores have downloaded the file and run the script. (I don''t have reporting setup yet other than on a few clients which I did manually) If I ssh into a

Hi, we use kerberos with keytabs on our clients. We do *not* trust root on the clients! One client should never have access to any other client''s keytab. This is my proposed solution to get the keytabs to the clients, any comments welcome! 1. Use file to get /root/.ssh/authorized_keys 2. Use exported resource to let the client "notify" the server that it wants a keytab 3. On

Hi , just starting off with Puppet on Macs. initially we are planning for a small group of machines. If successfull we plan to span it to entire environment in a phased manner. I have a couple of newbie questions. Do i have to use custom script to create and maintain user/group accounts as far as i have read i can manage passwords ? Can i use puppet fileserver also as sourcedir for pushing

Can anyone comment / expand upon http://www.nico.schottelius.org/blog/puppet-sometimes-loads-a-class/ I am experiencing a case which may be related. We have an ENC, and recently on our twice daily noop runs from cron, puppet has reported some servers aren''t in sync because they do not have a certain module/class (dns_server) even though they are not subscribed to the dns_server module in

I noticed the following problems when working with CloudPack and the image ami-08728661 (and it probably apples to other CentOS images as well) 1) the ssh user in this AMI is ec2-user, but sudo to root is not possible in the ssh command unless pseudo-tty allocation forced with ssh -t option. so I changed cloudpack.rb, line 573 from: ssh_remote_execute(server, options[:login], install_command,

Is there a way to get a list of all the classes available from the puppet master? I have 2 goals for this - one is documentation in a human readable form, and the other is potentially importing that data into dashboard. I did find some info on the rest API (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_api.html#resource-types ) but I can''t make any sense of the output from it. Thanks.

Hi folks, Last night and this morning i''ve hacked up a quick web site for coordinating our development work based on Drupal (http://drupal.org). You can find it at: http://shorewall.dyndns.org I''ve put a few ideas in there - feel free to use the comments or sign up for an account and create your own pages (particularly in the two books about development and web site work).

Hi all, As I understand it, storeconfigs needs to be enabled on both the agent and the master to function ideally. I have a couple of questions: -> Can the various agents and the master safely share the same storeconfigs db (say, a postgresql server)? Is there any benefit to setting things up this way? -> Is there any benefit for an _agent_ to use an RDBMS vs sqlite for its
