Issue #2497 has been updated by Larry Ludwig.

Ideally puppet should be used to install software (ie nagios) to alert you of 
impending doom and/or also monitor the age of your yaml file.  So indirectly 
Puppet can be used to prevent or alert you from Puppet blowing up.

I would consider this a rejected ticket.

Feature #2497: puppetd can not recover when /var is full
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2497

Author: Anselm Strauss
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: Luke Kanies
Category: plumbing
Target version: 
Complexity: Unknown
Affected version: 0.24.8
Keywords: 


When /var is full puppetd refuses to run. It's then also not possible to use 
puppet itself to clean /var up. In my case this was very annoying, since puppet 
would have been the tool to fix a full filesystem on our many hosts, and also 
puppet was the one that caused an overfilled /var with the file bucket.

Should there be some protection for something like this? Should puppet continue 
when no filesystem space is available and at least run things that are still 
possible?
