Hi! If I change manifest on master and then immediately run "puppet agent --no-daemonize --report --pluginsync --onetime" then it still uses old version of manifest. When I run it second time it sees changes and applies them. Why is it like that? Is it intended to be so? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To

I''m getting this error message quite often on the puppet clients. I don''t know what it means. Restarting puppet often helps and the messages will go away, but suddenly it will come back again. Any thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to

Hi guys, Apologies if this is covered elsewhere. I''ve had a hunt through Google, Redline, and the FAQs but dont see it. Puppet 0.24.8 (and 24.7 on teh same box) starts up fine, but then just sits there, regardless of what I set runinterval to be. Puppet Server debug output stops at: debug: Creating default schedules debug:

Hi experts! I am running Puppet 0.25.5 on CentOS, and I have two machines, one running as master one as client. My master machine seems alright but my client machine keeps on getting this message: "Could not run: Could not create PID file: /var/lib/puppet/run/puppetd.pid" I''m new to this and I''m really confused, the steps I took for the client is almost identical to

Hi, I just made a custom fact to display a status about mysql. The fact variable is ''foo''. In a module I test this fact variable to apply or not a ressource : class bar { if $::foo == ''toto'' { notice("Execute ressource") # Reload fact variable ? if $::foo == ''toto'' { fail("Ressource not

I have some middleware where the successful configuration of node B is dependent on the successful configuration of node A. Node B must pull additional information from node A during its configuration. Is there any built in functionality in puppet for checking the completion status of other nodes? Right now my intent is to write a custom function to query the puppetdb which is storing

Hello, I use puppet to configure CentOS 5 servers which have services controlled by linux-ha (heartbeat). This means that these services have to be configured by chkconfig (e.g. "chkconfig --add httpd") but NOT to execute automatically on boot (i.e. "chkconfig httpd off"). Currently, from looking at the source of puppet (version 0.22.4, installed from RPM from

I see that line in the agent node''s log. Is that the time taken by the Puppet Master to compile the manifests into a catalog? Or is that the rime taken by the agent to "apply" the catalog on the node? More specifically, I want to determine the exact time taken by the puppet master to compile the catalog for a given node? Is that logged somewhere? -- You received this

Hi, I''m following http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PluginsInModules in order to use a custom fact. My modules looks like: # ls manifests/modules/network/ manifests plugins # ls manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb as is said in doc. Then: Turn on pluginsync and specify factpath, so that the facts

Hi all, I''ve set up a Puppet environment with a master managing around 80 agents. I would like to set a limit on the number of agents that can be performing puppet runs at any given moment...so, for example, if there are already 3 puppet runs ongoing, the 4th agent should be put on hold until one of the 3 runs finishes. Is there a way to configure this? It would be perfect if it can be

I''m trying to run puppet using the tarball and so far, I''ve been unsuccessful. The system I''m trying to run puppet on is running RHEL 5.3. Now first of all, this system does not have access to internet. Therefore I don''t have any access to any of the repositories from which I can download the rpms and its dependencies. So instead, I got the puppet, facter, ruby

I''m using puppet through Vagrant to manage my dev VM, and as part of that I have a few database grants that I run after creating users, but when I subsequently run vagrant up or provision these grants fail (because of some changes I make to the mysql config after they have been created.) I''m using database_grant to execute the grants, but there doesn''t seem to be a
