Hello All, How do I specify a variable that has a space in it? I''m trying to setup a yum repo that has two different baseurl''s based on the product name ($productname). Default goes one way, but if the product is "PowerEdge 2650" then is a different URL. The thing is, that is only picking up the default. How should I specify the value with the space in the

hello list.. I am sharing a yum configuration in a class (centos.pp) between two nodes. But the yum configuration doesn''t apply at all to one node even tho it does to another identically configured node. ## packages are failing to install via yum on one ec2 aws instance and another identical ec2 instance works fine [root@kromep2 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.5 (Final)

I am trying to set a "subscribe" for a Yumrepo object so that an Exec "yum clean all" is ran immediately after a Yumrepo is changed. With the following setup, I am not seeing the "subscribe" fire off until after Packages that have a require pointing to the Yumrepo["custom"] are attempted to be installed. Is in right to expect that the subscribe on the

I''m using puppet-0.24.8-4.el5 on CentOS 5.4. My problem is yumrepo isn''t writing the "name=" field to the repository files which causes yum to complain with the error: Repository ''local-CentOS-5.4-x86_64'' is missing name in configuration, using id I get this behavior on all of my yumrepo definitions. One of them looks like this: yumrepo {

I''m running puppet 0.24.6 on CentOS 5.2 from a puppetmaster on a virtual server to a variety of client servers both virtual and metal running either CentOS 5.2 or Fedora Core 10. I want to extend this to servers running RHEL 5 (and 6) in the near future. My problem is I have puppet set up with all repositories (mirrored locally using cobbler) included in one file in

Hi. I have the following facts available: # facter | grep oper operatingsystem => CentOS operatingsystemrelease => 6.2 Now, if I wish to use conditionals on these facts, I have to do it like this: case $operatingsystem {} case $::operatingsystemrelease {} I''m puzzled as to why can''t I just use $operatingsystemrelease, and what do these two semicolons mean? Thank

My head hurts from trying to figure this out for the past several hours . . . I want to determine what provider to use based on a fact (thanks for the suse version fact btw) but I ain''t gettin it: What''s wrong? Am I going down the completely wrong path? Is there a better way? # suse-yum.pp case $suse_repo_name { #sled10-i586: {Package{ provider => rug}} sled10-i586:

Hi all, I''m looking at changing the operatingsystemrelease fact for Red Hat. Linux currently just uses the kernel release as the operating system release, but I''ve got a client who wants the release to have both the specific distro (e.g., AS or EL) and the release (e.g., 3 or 4). Will this particularly annoy anyone? Anyone want to help make the release string work on

Hi all, I''ve finally gotten around to releasing Facter 1.5. As the version bump implies, this is a relatively significant release (for a 2.3k line program, anyway). Mostly, the biggest change is refactoring the code internally so that all of the functionality is split into separate classes in separate files. Also, the facts are all loaded on-demand, which provides dramatic

Hello Puppet list, I am taking over the puppet configuration of a sysadmin who left, and am having troubles deploying puppet to a new node. We are using puppet v2.7.3 both on the client and the puppetmaster, on Ubuntu 10.10. The node asks for a certificate fine, and I signed it on the puppetmaster. For the following logs extract I ve replaced the FQDN of my node by puppet.example.com. When doing

Hi, in an attempt to simplify my configuration, and from a suggestion on IRC, I was thinking of using multiple values for file { source => [] }. Was just currious if anyone had any comments on this. Basically, I setup my file-server to use: <snip> [private] path /var/lib/puppet/files/private/%H allow * [shared] path /var/lib/puppet/files/shared allow *

Hi, I want to introduce "Proxmox" as new value in $::operatingsystem. "Proxmox" is based on Debian, so the normal value is currently "Debian". To change that, I just write a custom fact based on the facter fact "operatingsystem" Facter.add(:operatingsystem) do > ... > setcode do > ... > elsif

I''ve run into an odd one on one of my new RHEL 6 boxes. Puppet and Facter seem to disagree about the value of a fact.

For instance, I just one to have one
