Hi all, I''m having a stupid moment getting a remote file bucket working. My client only file buckets locally, not remotely. I have this site.pp: ********* filebucket { "main": server => "puppet" } File { backup => "main" } node ''default'' { include test } ********* and this test module: ********* class test { file {

Hi everyone, I''ve got several questions that are most probably obvious to some of you but I''m actually a bit ''in the fog'' about filebucket. backup are done on a md5 basis so 1 file is generated whatever the number of clients if it''s the same md5. That a really good option. On the other hand let''s say that after 3 months I need to restore a /

Hello Everyone, I''m still pretty new with puppet so please bare with me. I tried searching and I''m pretty sure I''ve ready my answer but I''m not sure if I''m going down the right path just yet. My scenario is this: I have 4 environments, Dev, Test, QA, Prod. Each of these environments lives in 2 sites, LA and NY. I have 5 applications that are site and

In my puppet client I have puppet.conf defined puppet server as mypuppet server = mypuppet.example.net Not sure why the puppet client puppet-test is still sending these noises to the syslog Jun 10 13:36:23 puppet-test puppetd[10863]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] Could not find server : getaddrinfo: node name or service name not known Jun 10 13:36:23 puppet-test puppetd[10863]: [ID 702911

Hi gang, I feel like I''m missing something fundamental here… I''ve got the following: class snmp::rhel::rh5enable { $collector = [''10.0.0.1'', ''10.0.0.2''] define add_snmp_hosts_allow ($ip) { exec { "hosts_allow_$ip": command => "/bin/echo \"snmpd : $ip : ALLOW\" >>/etc/hosts.allow",

I''ve installed the puppet labs lvm module.

Hello, I am a bit confused by the REST syntax - how can I PUT an arbitrary file in the bucket? Downloading works fine (Perl+LWP), see below, but for PUT I only see this line in the docs (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_api.html): PUT /{environment}/file_bucket_file/md5/{checksum} Should I compute the MD5 of the file and port its contents at the url ? my code: my $ua =

Is puppet --genmanifest something one should still be using?

Hi. Last night the /var/lib/puppet/clientbucktet directory on one of our production servers suddenly grew about 4 GB, filling up the entire /var partition. Around that time, I see that there was a problem with one of our CIFS mount points (i.e. our CIFS client had problems reaching our CIFS server). We''re using puppet to set up the CIFS mount point. Under the clientbucket folder, I

I am having issues with filebucket. I have looked through the puppet users google groups with similar issues but have not found a solution that works. I am trying to setup a central filebucket on the puppetmaster server. I am replacing the client''s /etc/puppet/puppet.conf file with a preconfigured version. The server delivers a copy of the puppet.conf file to the client, but the backup

Any plans to get the actual diffs of file changes into puppetdb? Right now you get the hashes of the buckets on the host, but if diffs could get into puppetdb, it could be extremely useful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hi, Is there a way to control access to the filebucket? Specifically, I wish to allow agents to backup to the filebucket but never restore. Is this possible to do?

Dear all, I have a custom fact, that reads a file and then generate the values dynamically based on the file content. It''s something like this: inFile = "/home/admin/OSs.txt" > gos = {} > > if File.exist?(inFile) > open(inFile, ''r'').each do |line| > next if line =~ /^\s*(#|$)/ > parts =

I´m trying to utilize the new stdlib module, but got stuck after installation on my puppet server. I´ve tried to use the included test file file_line.pp on the server, but it´s only creating the file - but not managing the content. the same problem on my clients (the new provider file_line has been synced), it´s just not working: file_line { ''puppet master host

Dear all, Is there any way to enable a particular yum-repo (like: yum -- enablerepo=<repo_name>), which is disabled as default, for a particular package installation? For our system, we need to "dag" for particular two packages but keeping it always enabled, clashes with other packages, which we don''t want to install for dag at all.

Hi, While at LCA this year I was talking to James Turnbull, and I think he said it was possible to a) pull files off a puppet client to the puppet master b) push those files out to other puppet clients I''ve been reading up on FileBucket and I don''t understand how I can achieve that, or if I''m on the right track. Whats at

So I''m new to puppet and I''m having a bear of a time just getting a test server going. I installed puppet and the puppet client via yum on CentOS on AWS, so that saved me some time. I followed a few various blog posts about getting everything set up and applying a file, etc. Now I am trying to install a module (puppetlabs/apache) and it''s failing miserably for me. I
