I have verify => true set in my remote_copy copy_from promise.
body copy_from remote_copy(sourcedir,sourceserver)
{
source => "$(sourcedir)";
servers => { "$(sourceserver)" };
copy_backup => "true";
purge => "true";
trustkey => "true";
compare => "digest";
encrypt => "true";
verify => "true";
}
Even with verify set, a client got wacked this morning by a bad data transfer
from cf-serverd. Here's the output of cf-execd on the client.
Was not able to copy
/var/cfengine/masterfiles/generic_cf-agent_policies/config-general/group_manifests_acct_manager/acct-manager.sysops.manifest
to
/var/cfengine/inputs/config-general/group_manifests_acct_manager/acct-manager.sysops.manifest
I: Made in version 'not specified' of '/var/cfengine/inputs/update.cf' near
line 58
!! Transmission refused or failed statting
/var/cfengine/masterfiles/generic_cf-agent_policies/config-general/group_manifests_acct_manager/acct-manager.qa.manifest
Got:
!! Transmission refused or failed statting
/var/cfengine/masterfiles/cf-agent_modules/%∑t+Óiçláèrõ˛Õ7†...@†j
ƒÁcwz´¿≥äfl‹£=êˆòëy‚Ä‹yjâ�...@ut)
Got:
(Plug-in module /var/cfengine/modules/module_machine_type not found)
(Plug-in module /var/cfengine/modules/module_site_env not found)
(Plug-in module /var/cfengine/modules/module_public_nic not found)
(Plug-in module /var/cfengine/modules/module_determine_hw_chassis not found)
So, my /var/cfengine/modules directory was ruined on the client because of the
bad transfer. This caused cf-agent to fail, because I rely on executing
modules in promises.cf to define classes...
Should I bet setting purge to false? Shouldn't cf-agent only be replacing
the file "after" a network transfer has happened?
