Hi, I am trying to use Hiera in puppet 3 and I have two nodes that both need the same configuration. In this case they are two web servers which have the same apache configuration. Rather than creating two seperate hiera files for node1.yaml and node2.yaml is there a way to group these by role (e.g. webserver.yaml)? I want to avoid duplicating the configuration if possible and keep the data

Morning All I''m trying to use Hiera with Puppet 3.0 to streamline some of my module configuration... However I''m having issues using the ''*%{::clientcert}*'' variable as part of the hierarchy... Currently, my *hiera.yaml* file looks like: --- :backends: - yaml - json :yaml: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :json: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata

Hi, I have a puppetmaster - agent architecture. I have a module for the vsftpd configuracion in the agents. The configuration of the value ''max_per_ip'' in the agents may vary. This is a line of the manifest: $max_per_ip = hiera(''max_per_ip'',10) I want to specify different values for each agent using hiera. The problem is I am only able to specify the

Hi everyone, I have a puppet master/client infrastructure setup with apache. When on the same datacenter I don''t have any problem. I am trying to use another datacenter, so I setup the fileserver.conf as followed: # Files in the /path/to/files directory will be served # at puppet:///mount_point/. [modules] allow *.datacenter1 allow *.datacenter2 [plugins]

Hello, Let''s consider the scenario when a client node in a puppet environment gets compromised. In case some of the puppet modules make decisions based on agent facts, these modules are potentially exposed to abuse from the malicious puppet agent. For example, if a class has: if $some_fact == ''some value'' { # deploy some configuration } then the compromised node

Hello, I am having problems with Puppet since upgrading to 3.0.0. When I call an inventory search I get a Error 400.

Hi guys, I have a box that needs to identify itself to the puppetmaster as something different from the FQDN. I added certname to the agent configuration before the first run, but it doesn''t seem to be sufficient. The certificate was generated for the FQDN, and the host appears in the dashboard as the FQDN, and the node name used to evaluate the manifest is also the FQDN. I would

Dear all, This is a continuation of another thread, but I think the question diverged enough to create a new one. I have a hiera hierarchy like this: :hierarchy: - %{fqdn} - %{secundary_group} - %{primary_group} - %{productname} - all And I need to define the secondary/primary groups as facts, on the nodes. Gary has suggested me to use plugins, that they will provide the facts before

Hi there, I''m running into an problem which I can resolve. It is bugging me for couple of days now.

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?

Im new to puppet and installed it in my home lab to mess with, when i installed it i used the hostname rather than FQDN so went back and changed puppet and reran the certificate tool to regenerate the certificates etc, the agent works fine now but i am getting an mccollective error i think, is there anything in the config i need to change for mccollective after altering the name to the FQDN?

So I want to use facts from one host in the configuration of other hosts. Trivial example: setting restrict lines in ntp.conf to allow a monitoring host to query ntpd on remote hosts. So if the monitoring host boots with IP 10.2.2.3 (which may change regularly), and it knows its the monitor host (via some customer facter plugins), I want some global variable to be available

I have a small environment with a single puppetmaster and puppetdb on the same node that I get sporadic "Failed to submit ''replace facts'' command" errors from nodes. It isn''t consistent about which nodes are causing the error and I can''t find anything else going on at the same time on either the master or the agent that these errors happen. Here

I''m not sure at all what''s going on here, but I''ve spent a lot of time reading over the puppet hiera docs and setting everything up, but when I run puppet agent it just seems to ignore the hiera setup completely. Both the puppet master and agent nodes have exactly the same versions of puppet and hiera (installed via the official puppet APT repository). I''ve

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
