Hi, are there any good ways of scripting an inventory of managed resources on all nodes? I''ve found the inventory script by R.I.Pienaar ( http://www.devco.net/archives/2010/02/26/what_does_puppet_manage_on_a_node-2.php) which does what I want but only locally on each client. Is there any native way of syncing the client_yaml data centrally or any other way of doing this? I need a

I came in this morning to find all the servers all locked up solid: # passenger-status ----------- General information ----------- max = 20 count = 20 active = 20 inactive = 0 Waiting on global queue: 236 ----------- Domains ----------- /etc/puppet/rack: PID: 2720 Sessions: 1 Processed: 939 Uptime: 9h 22m 18s PID: 1615 Sessions: 1 Processed: 947 Uptime: 9h 23m

Hi all. New puppet developer. Very excited. I have the agents communicating with the puppet master. I''m wondering now about best practice for file and user permissions on the puppet master. Most of my wonder probably stems from general lack of understanding in this area. I''d like to get it right though to avoid refactoring later. 1. What''s the best practice, or your

My understanding was that at the beginning of each run the puppetmaster imports all modules so that any includes at the top level are applied directly. However, I am not so sure anymore. I''ve been tracing how this works and it seems like modules are included more lazily. In other words, when able_to_import is called seems like when the magic happens, rather than up front when the run

Hi, When I run puppet agent --test --environment 42A, I have the following warning : Warning: Local environment: "42A" doesn''t match server specified node environment "production", switching agent to "production". ... The puppet manifest for the environment "42A" isn''t applied. The puppet version is 3.3.1-1puppetlabs1 on agent and

I am trying to get a custom fact to sync. The fact is in a module. It will sync if I run puppet with "--pluginsync" but not otherwise. I have "pluginsync=true" in my puppet.conf. Shouldn''t the command line option and puppet.conf option have the same results? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hi List, Puppet Version: v2.7.13 Question - If I correctly setup multiple manifestdir''s in the puppet.conf file how can I import a node pp file located in a different directory tree to site.pp? My configuration information is below. In my puppet.conf file I have setup an environment called "stable", within this environment I have setup the manifestdir, modulepath and

Warning - Puppet newby here. I am trying to set up a puppetmaster 3.3.2 and have run into a snag right out of the box. I want to add a new directory to modulepath= in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf So I added the following line in the [main] header modulepath = /etc/puppet/modules:/opt/our-repo/puppetmaster/modules And populated new new directory with modules I have written. I then run puppet

Greetings all Am trying to solve a problem, not entirely sure I''m approaching it from the right angle. Setting up a reasonably big site (servercount in the four digits) with puppetmaster and clients (puppet 2.6.x). We are required to have versioned modules (base SOE module, app X module, app Y module, etc - all with multiple classes etc inside) managed on an underlying SVN repository. A

Hi, I have a Puppet Enterprise (2.0) puppetmaster running with Foreman, and having trouble getting it working as an External Node Classifier. In short, if I manually add a test client into site.pp, it will retrieve the proper catalog / classes, but I would like to avoid having to do that. I''m also using environments (production/testing/ development) as well, but think I have most of

Is there a way to tell the puppetmaster that I want to import all modules rather than listing each one individually?

I have a small program that I am broadcasting out on port 36 and attempting to receive information back. Using "tcpdump port 36" I can see 2 devices responding to me but I get no data. The response my program gets is: Size IP Address Subnet MAC Address ID 20 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 00-00-00-00-00-00 Does someone know what I might not be doing

Hi all, I''m doing a new install of my puppet server and I''m doing it like: 1.-) adding epel repo: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#howtouse 2.-) yum -y install puppet-server 3.-) rm -rf /etc/puppet 4.-) copy my old puppet conf (from puppet-0.24.5 to 0.24.6) mv /etc/puppet.old /etc/puppet 5.-) start puppetmaster: [gridinstall etc]# /etc/init.d/puppetmaster start

hi, i''m trying to set up my puppetmaster infrastructure with multiple puppetservers behind load balancers in each of our datacenters. i''m using 0.24.6. i''ve read the howto on puppet scalability, and i think i''ve got the ssl config working correct, but i''m noticing that when puppetd is used to build a puppetmaster, some of the files in $vardir/ ssl

Hi, I have a running puppetmaster with nginx and passenger and ruby 1.9.2. When i do puppet cert --trace --list . i get the following error. /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/puppet-2.7.9/lib/puppet/application/ cert.rb:43:in `block (2 levels) in <class:Cert>'' /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/puppet-2.7.9/lib/puppet/application.rb: 357:in `block (2 levels) in parse_options''

Hi, I''m starting to move over to Modules, which looks pretty clean and solid. Reading http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ModuleOrganisation, one thing that confuses me is how the client resolves the implicit file server resources. I''ve got a few different puppet master servers running on different ports, and my configuration re-defines $puppet_master_host and

Hello, Everybody! I need to allow my developers to run a special script on QA servers and nowhere else. I put this sort of thing in place: class app-server { packages: foo:; bar:; baz:; if $environment == ''qa'' { file { ''a'': content => ... } } which feels kinda kludgey to me. Is there a better way to handle unique cases like this

I tried to install the ''mongrel'' gem tonight via puppet in an attempt to migrate from webrick to mongrel as described on the puppet site[1]. I added the following to my manifest: package { "rubygems": ensure => installed; "mongrel": ensure => installed, provider => gem, require => Package["rubygems"]; }

I am finding that the puppetlabs-apache module is somehow adding 30-60 seconds onto a host''s catalog compile time when the puppetmaster has no other hosts contacting or generating catalogs. The Puppetmaster is setup to use Puppet-2.7.18 - Apache & Passenger. RIght now only 2 hosts are even configured to use this new PM, the PM itself and a Foreman host. With neither hosts

Hello Gang, I''m working on scaling my puppet solution, and I''m deploying multiple masters w/ passenger that are going sit behind a load balancer. If anyone is using these type of setup, would you share how you deal with the SSL certs? I''ve been following Bode''s Blog (http://bodepd.com/wordpress/?p=7), and it''s not working to good for me.
