Hello all,
I am running into a strange warning message from getindices in a configuration
I use to manage passwords for DBA's and System Admins on a bunch of LINUX
servers.
I use a couple of arrays to maintain information about the system admins and
DBA's. I use the arrays to both create the users on new systems, and keep the
passwords in sync. Creating the users works like a charm with no errors. The
password sync stuff however throws warning messages, but does work.
This is a test file that I am using to try and figure out what is going on, I
think it should work but running cf-promises against the file produces the
messages:
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "dba" but
this was not found
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "sysadmins"
but this was not found
Running cf-agent -KI -f ./passtest.cf produces the following messages:
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "dba" but
this was not found
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "sysadmins"
but this was not found
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "dba" but
this was not found
Function getindices was promised an array called "users" in scope "sysadmins"
but this was not found
R: x is set to dba1
R: x is set to dba2
R: x is set to sysadm1
R: x is set to sysadm2
This is the contents of passtest.cf:
body common control {
bundlesequence => { "passwordsync" };
inputs => { "../cfengine_stdlib.cf",
"../site.cf",
};
}
bundle agent passwordsync
{
vars:
any::
"dba_users" slist => getindices("dba.users"),
policy => "overridable";
"admin_users" slist => getindices("sysadmins.users"),
policy => "overridable";
"u" slist => { "@(dba_users)", "@(admin_users)", },
policy => "overridable";

}
bundle agent linux_pwds(system,users) {
vars:

reports:
linux::
"x is set to $(x)";
}

bundle agent dba

"users" string => "dba";
"users" string => "/home/dba2";

}
bundle agent sysadmins
{
vars:
# Users to create
"users" string => "sysadm1 - UNIX Admin Group";
"users" string => "123458";
"users" string => "aixadmin";
"users" string => "/home/sysadm1";
"users" string => "/usr/bin/ksh93";
"users" string => "sysadm1 - Server Team";
"users" string => "123459";
"users" string => "aixadmin";
"users" string => "/home/sysadm2";
"users" string => "/usr/bin/ksh93";
}
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Raymond Cox
