Erik Hansen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6814 Filebucket fails with recursive backup Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/10/12 5:24 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Erik Hansen Managing a directory with a deep directory structure and that contains a large file causes an error in AIX 7.1: Error: /Stage[main]/Filetest/File[/test]/ensure: change from directory to absent failed: failed to allocate memory Error: Could not run: failed to allocate memory The directory /test in this case contains a deep directory structure as well as a large file, I'm not sure what the threshold for receiving the error is but to reproduce I did this: mkdir -p /test/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp/temp cd to above directory and : dd if=/dev/urandom of=file.txt bs=1048576 count=100 dd if=/dev/urandom of=file2.txt bs=1048576 count=100 puppet filebucket backup /test Then, apply a class from the master containing: class filetest { file {'/test': ensure => absent, force => true, backup => 'main', } } Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029-sha1:ae256fe) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
