Julian commented on HI-128   Re: Hiera deep merge on hash doesn't have a "whiteout" or "remove this key" value Henrik Lindberg then we have to reopen the ticket, the ticket is about "remove this key" from hash (or should i open a new one?). i tried all combinations: firewall::rules --ssh_all: --ssh_all: {} --ssh_all: ssh_admins: { action: 'ACCEPT', proto: 'tcp', source: 'net:123.456.768', dest: '$FW', port: '22', sport: '-', original_dest: '-', order: '50', comment: 'admin ssh access' } --ssh_all: ~ '--ssh_all': '--ssh_all': {} '--ssh_all': ssh_admins: { action: 'ACCEPT', proto: 'tcp', source: 'net:123.456.768', dest: '$FW', port: '22', sport: '-', original_dest: '-', order: '50', comment: 'admin ssh access' } '--ssh_all': ~ none of them worked. what should work, or what my feature request would be: '--ssh_all': #or '--ssh_all': {} should remove the key of a hash with all its subelements because then we can define for example common firewall rules (which are defined as a hash) and remove them again for a specific host 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.
