Issue #1381 has been updated by luke.
Not sure; care to test? I assume processes do inherit their niceness, though. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1381: Add nice option to 'exec' type http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/redmine/issues/show/1381 Author: lludwig Status: Accepted Priority: Low Assigned to: community Category: exec Target version: unplanned Keywords: exec nice Complexity: Unknown Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.4 It would be nice to 'nice' a program before it starts. That way any application you run with puppet (ie compiling) can be NICEd to a lower priority and not hog too many resources. I propose something like this: <pre> exec { "gcc test.c": nice => 15, } </pre> this would nice the @gcc test.c@ to a level of 15. If ran manually it would look like this. <pre> nice 15 gcc test.c </pre> Also if possible it would be great if a global wide option for puppet can 'nice' all external applications run (either via 'exec' type or other types that call external programs (ie 'package' type that calls 'yum'). IMHO what matters is puppet creates a correct configuration, not how fast it runs. ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
