So, this has always puzzled me a bit. By convention, init.pp contains one class, named the same as the module. However, what is the convention when the module may have multiple external access points? Say you have a module called ''syslog'' which provides both a client and a server class. I typically have used syslog::server and syslog::client. I''ve ended up using this

I''ve begun using Hiera in combination with Foreman, primarily storing data that is best left in Array/Hash form. I''d like to be able to have a module, in this case BackupPC, query all the Hiera data for each node where the backup directories/databases are stored. Then use all that information on the BackupPC server to generate proper configuration files for each

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 have been storing the output of facter in a database with the assumption that uniqueid was actually unique, until I found that it is the same for a handful of my machines. It appears that uniqueid is set from the output of hostid. I checked into hostid and it gets its value from gethostid(). The following link, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/gethostid.html, states,

Seems like nodes are matching the default node before they are matching the more specific nodes. My site.pp has: include "nodes/*.pp" In the nodes directory are two files, default.pp and nagios_server.pp. default.pp: node default { include role::common } nagios_server.pp: node ''mon01.us1.xxx.com'' { $node_env = "production" include

Hi all, It looks like I''ll be in Seattle on Sunday, September 16th through Tuesday the 18th, and I''d like to have Puppet Meetup either Sunday or Monday night. On Adam''s recommendation, I''ll be staying at the Queen Anne Inn, so something near there would be best. Hopefully Adam or Blake can do the actual organization. :) Any takers? -- What is

hello, Till now hiera-puppet was the only way I know that allowed hiera data to be loaded from inside a module. The problem with this was that it was still subject to the site specific hierarchy which means a module author had a pretty hard time to store his data in a proper way in his module thus perpetuating the use of the params classes pattern. Now that Puppet 3 is out and it''s gem

I''m trying to automatically create users as a requirement for ssh keys to work. Here is my issue. I am getting this error from the agent. The SSH part works fine, but it will not create the user due to a dependency issue.

When I update an ActiveRecord, i would like to "touch" one of the related objects, that the updated record belongs_to, in order to update the timestamps on the parent record, although i don''t want to change any of the data in the parent.

I''d like to include similar information that notice() spits out in a file I am generating -- basically so that anyone looking at the generated file (actually a file fragment) could trace it back to the class that is generating the entry. Using $name within the file fragment is the closest I am getting to what I want -- is there anything better? -- You received this message because you

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.
