Hi while writing facts I heavily use confines to avoid that facts get loaded where they shouldn''t. However I didn''t yet find out how I can add a multiple decision to a confine. so normally I have confine :kernel => :linux but what when kernel can be linux or sunos? just add 2 confines? or can I nest them? something like confine :kernel => :linux||:sunos would be nice.

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

Hello, we have one puppet server managing approx servers, all FreeBSD. The problem is that the puppet clients all hangs, one by one, eventually. They will run for anything between an hour up to a week. But eventually the all hang. We really like puppet and want to keep using it. But the way it is now is completely unusable. We''ve tried many versions, from 24.x, and now 2.6.1rc1. But

Hello all, I am developing a few custom providers for some features that I need into my system (such as dealing with different zipped files or generating some JSON data based on OS files) and I have hit into a question about "how to do this for multiple OS?" Lets focus into the zipped file provider that should provide a common method to pack or unpack zipped files (tar, tar.gz,

In the documentation, there is an example such as this: case $operatingsystem { sunos: { include solaris } # apply the solaris class redhat: { include redhat } # apply the redhat class default: { include generic } # apply the generic class } I''ve seen the $operatingsystem variable used elsewhere. What actually puts the value into the $operatingsystem variable? Does

I am trying to setup Puppet + Mongrel on RHEL5. So far I have followed this document: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Using_Mongrel_On_Enterprise_Linux The puppetmasters all start up and Apache starts up on 8140.

Hello, I''m new to puppet and facter. Initially we are planning on using facter/puppet to inventory machines (Mac, Ubuntu, and RHEL). We plan on writing a number of custom facts. Obviouly some of the facts will only be specific to some OSs. I know there is a "confine" method, but it confuses me. It seems the confine statement in some of the recipes and in the Turnbull book is

Hi all. I am testing 0.25.4 to upgrade from 0.23.2. In testing, I found two strange messages on 0.25.4 which I have never found on 0.24.3.

Hi All, I''m trying to write some plugins that should only be sync''d if they''re for a specific platform. For example, in our environment we''re supporting Solaris, Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS and Mac OS X. We''ve developed some OS X plugins and some Solaris plugins but we''ve noticed that our Linux hosts have imported our OS X plugins and now throw

Hoping you guys might be able to help me out, I''m not sure what''s wrong but puppet agent hangs for over a minute, no resource spikes (CPU, memory, etc all stay basically the same as without starting puppet, barely a blip, and I''ve got more than enough headroom). It''s not a serious issue for continuous usage, but really, really annoying when testing the manifests

I''m trying to write a script that runs command based on version of Redhat OS. For example, if the RHEL version is 6.0, it will run command. I was able to write file read script in ruby that would read file and execute but it didn''t seem to work in puppet script. Has anyone done something like this? $redhat_version_file = "/etc/redhat-release" $redhat_version =

When Samba joins to AD, net creates 'Computer' object in target AD. Object 'Computer' has attributes operatingSystem and operatingSystemVersion, which automatically setup in properly value, when native Windows join to AD.

I am trying to streamline the current distribution specific setup and creation of VE''s within OpenVZ with puppet. My first attempt has gone horribly wrong as you will see below.
