similar to: Puppet not pushing file

Hello all, I am trying to write a script that will check logs for puppet errors to use in a nagios check. I am checking /var/log/messages (RHEL6) but when puppet runs on its 30 minute interval, nothing gets written to messages. I have also looked at /var/log/puppet/puppet.log but that does not seem to be consistent either: [root@gm10v nagios]# tail /var/log/puppet/puppet.log Wed May 02 14:27:47

Hello everyone, I am new to puppet. I have installed on redhat Enterprise 5and seems to be working fine. Couple days ago I was testing some permissions on / etc folder and applied 600 /etc and sub folders. Although I have reverted the permission but I am having issues on puppetmaster. Currently I have these permission on etc 755 and puppet folder: my /etc folder is 755 and puppet folder with tese

Hi, I''m new to Puppet so may be going about this completely the wrong way, or perhaps it is an selinux problem rather than a Puppet problem. I have a problem copying a file and changing the seltype. I don''t think it is Nagios specific. Code is something like: file { ''/usr/sbin/nrpe'': source =>

Hi all, I got this directory configuration: file { "${codebase_ng::repository_mount}/${sonatype_work_dir}": ensure => directory, owner => $nexus_user, group => $nexus_group, mode => 0755, recurse => false, backup => false, } Today I added some 100GB of artifacts

OS - RHEL5.7 Installation Source - epel-testing repo Puppet server version - 2.6.6 puppetd version - 2.6.6 I searched Google and none of the answers were a match for my set up... I can do ''puppetd --test'' from the client and things work as expected. When doing puppet kick hostname I get the following: Triggering hostname Host hostname failed: hostname not match with the server

We were using Naginator resources like nagios_host, etc. along with stored configurations and exported resources. Worked pretty well. However we have to separate the Puppet master and the Icinga (Nagios) server. They will be on different machines from now on. Are there any best practices for such a scenario? I already thought about some kind of ''rsync'' of the configuration from

We want to use Nagios to monitor out puppet server so we can be notified if it goes down. We are using Fusion Passenger and Apache on Red Hat. Any suggestion for what and how to monitor? -- Thanks, Allan Marcus 505-667-5666 Allan@lanl.gov -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, I've purchased a new dedicated CentOS 6.0 / 64 bit server and have 2 minor problems please: 1) The "hostname" is reported as CentOS-60-64-minimal at CLI - eventhough I've edited /etc/hosts and changed the 2nd line: 127.0.0.1 localhost 176.9.123.123 preferans 2) Why is /etc/localtime a regular file? Should I maybe rm /etc/localtime ln -s

All, I have 3 servers. All 3 are CentOS 5.5. All 3 have identical /etc/ssh/sshd_config files. I used ssh-keygen (with no arguments) to generate keys with no password. I then added all 3 id_rsa.pub keys to the authorized_keys file. With this set up, I should be able to ssh between all 3 boxes without needing a password. The problem is that one of the servers keeps asking for a password even with

Have a CentOS 4.x 32 bit server running on a single 500M SATA drive. What is easiest way to convert too RAID 1 on it? Anyone have a link? Would be open to hardware or software just do not want to reinstall the entire mess.

Given that the Document Foundation has now split away from Oracle to continue the development of an independent office suite, do we have any idea which was CentOS and Red Hat are planning to go in this area - OpenOffice or LibreOffice? I know that LibreOffice is not production ready yet - they only have their first beta available, but it's just a matter of (likely a short) time before the

Hi everyone; I am trying to change the location of where the ssl cert files are stored. I have changed this in the puppet.conf file but, when I start the puppetmaster, the only certs being created are still in /etc/ puppet. Can someone tell me what I am missing here?

Hi ! I need a plot for data extending over several orders of magnitude on the y axis. The following command generates a nice looking semi-log plot for my data: plot(x,y,log="y",type="l",lty=3, ylim=c(0.01,2),yaxp=c(0.01,1,1),las=1) I would appreciate having also minor tick marks in-between the 3 major ticks obtained with the above command.

Hi folks, I research at the moment a connection over fuse and samba for hadoop-cluster. Its my private playground, but I have some issues I can't figure out why they happen. I use RHEL5.7, packetlist: rpm -qa|grep samba samba-3.0.33-3.29.el5_7.4.x86_64 samba-common-3.0.33-3.29.el5_7.4.x86_64 2 servers, one provides samba-shares and one I use as client. Samba-Server (HOST2): FuseFS:

I can''t get a new client working with my puppet master. When I try to run ''puppet agent --test'' on the client, I get err: Could not request certificate: Connection refused - connect(2) Exiting; failed to retrieve certificate and waitforcert is disabled I can''t telnet from the client to the server on port 8140. There are no firewalls between the 2 servers.

This module does basically what I have done in the very beginning. Create an empty directory as a preparation step for the configuration files. But this configuration also did not regenerate the files. Seems, I will stick with my workaround and delete the files manually and the restart the Puppet agent.

Hi all I have been pondering this for a while, but not yet seen a clean way to do it I have a few puppet classes (apache/ntp/mysql/bacula/nagios/etc) I would like to generate part of my bacula and nagios configs for each host based on which other classes that host belongs to (or to put it another way, I would like to export variables from classes which would be used by my bacula and nagios

Hi all, I have a situation where I need to consolidate a few servers running Solaris 9 and 8. If the application doesn''t run natively on Solaris 10 or Nevada, I was thinking of using Solars 9 or 8 branded zones. My intent would be for the global zone to use ZFS boot/root; would I be correct in thinking that this will be OK for the branded zones? That is, they don''t care about
