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

Hello, Does anybody know how to compare a filebucketed file easily with the current file based on these infos? info: /Stage[main]/Nginx/File[/etc/nginx/nginx.conf]: Filebucketed /etc/nginx/nginx.conf to puppet with sum 90dbcd7cf0accf5d372d077a6c90020c remote: notice: /Stage[main]/Nginx/File[/etc/nginx/nginx.conf]/content: content changed ''{md5}90dbcd7cf0accf5d372d077a6c90020c''

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

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 /

Hi all, I''m having a stupid moment getting a remote file bucket working. My client only file buckets locally, not remotely.

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

Is there a way to copy file(s) from the Puppet agent back to the master? I know it sounds silly but that''s what I need to do. This is one of the s/w-tag files, gets created/modified automatically by the software installation job and then I want to overwrite the tag files on two other agents with this one. Is there a why for doing this? Cheers, San -- You received this message because

Hi, I''m using the ''backup'' parameter in file resources to backup to a central filebucket on the puppetmaster. How do I restore a backup? I couldn''t find anything in the wiki, but saw some docs by running ''filebucket --help''. It says to restore a backed up file, you need to know the md5sum. Unfortunately, AFAIK the only place this

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

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 =

I have a mostly working set of modules to replace our kickstart and about a dozen scripts. I am having issues with attempting to populate my AD account-owned user folders in the initial puppet run. The machines i am testing with are all CentOS 5.5 so far. I have defined 3 additional stages, Stage [init] -> Stage [pre] -> Stage [main] -> Stage [post] to attempt to fix this to no avail.

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. 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
