similar to: Functions for PuppetDB

I have some middleware where the successful configuration of node B is dependent on the successful configuration of node A. Node B must pull additional information from node A during its configuration. Is there any built in functionality in puppet for checking the completion status of other nodes? Right now my intent is to write a custom function to query the puppetdb which is storing

Hello All, I''m reviewing switching to puppet from chef and am trying to identify how to port the various features. I have hit a stumbling block searching for nodes. In Chef i could search for a node by role, but I am lost as how to do this with puppet and classes. Example: I want my load-balancing node to look for all application server nodes and grab their ip address (and hostname

I have puppetdbquery working on my puppet-2.7.16 puppet master but I am getting an error when using it with puppet-3.0.0-rc5 https://github.com/dalen/puppet-puppetdbquery This is the error I am getting: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: undefined method `start'' for #<Puppet::Network::HTTP::Connection:0x7fa6e25db7c8> How would I go

I just released dalen-puppetdbquery 1.1.0, one cool new feature in this release is a hiera backend. So if you have a puppet class that takes a list of hosts as a parameter you can now fill it using dynamic data from a puppetdb query. No need anymore to modify the module itself or create a wrapper class around it to do the puppetdb query in. It requires another hiera backend to be active at the

I''m trying to query puppetdb for a list of hosts maching a certain regex (on hostname) and only returns 2 facts (ipaddress and hostname) I''m trying to follow: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppetdb/latest/api/query/tutorial.html and I''m not even quite sure, wether or not, I should use a facts or a nodes, or a resources query ? I get some of the queries to return just

Hi all, For months now I''ve been using Puppet with PuppetDB backend to manage my Nagios configs. We now have 1200+ services being checked and including servicedependency, host, hostdependency, command and other Nagios resources being managed, that''s about 3000 resources in total. Unfortunately this means the monitoring server takes about 8 minutes to perform a Puppet run.

Hi everyone, I recently ran into an issue where my puppetmaster can''t run puppet on itself.

Hello, I''m currently trying to deploy puppetdb to my environment but I''m having difficulties and am unsure on how to proceed. I have 1300+ nodes checking in at 15 minute intervals (3.7 million resources in the population). The load is spread across 6 puppet masters. I requisitioned what I thought would be a powerful enough machine for the puppetdb/postgres server. A machine

I''m working on configuring a master in a lab environment, using Puppet Open Source. My master is running RHEL 6. I want to use modules to manage the master itself as much as possible, so I can use puppet to bootstrap itself as I go forward and move into production. Using puppetlabs/puppetdb to configure puppetdb, I''ve overcome most of my issues but I have two questions. 1)

Hi everyone I''m currently trying to install Puppetdb on my puppet master server (on Suse 11 SP2 64bits) using the Source method<http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppetdb/1.3/install_from_source.html>and I can''t figure out why it is not working.

I''m doing some testing with the puppetlabs/haproxy module on a vagrant box with puppet 3 set up.

Hi all, I''ve been looking at a potential problem, as documented here: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19241 To do with a leak within the KahaDB persistence layer of ActiveMQ. Specifically, there are reports of the db.data file growing unbounded: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3956 I''m hoping to find out information from other PuppetDB users to see if this is

I have a requirement where I want a Fact to be stored in PuppetDB during the manifest run and not during the initial fact gathering phase. I know I can, in my manifests, create a file in /etc/facter/facts.d or I can write a Ruby script that will then be distributed by plugin sync. But both of these methods will only publish the fact during the initial phase of the puppet agent run. What I

Hello, I would like to ask what to pay attention to, when someone wants to set up multiple PuppetDB instances (and point them to the same DB), and put them behind a proxy/load balancer, as mentioned in the documentation<http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppetdb/1/scaling_recommendations.html#bottleneck-single-point-of-failure> . Can this cause some concurrency issues with the message queues?
