Issue #4904 has been updated by John Warburton.
Nigel - your proposal looks good to me (I too tested 2.6.2rc1 and found issue #
2730 didn't change the behavior)
My (very) rough reading of lib/puppet/type/mount.rb says the problem lines are
the presumed always refresh. So, ensure => present should set self_refresh =>
false
newtype(:mount, :self_refresh => true) do
and
feature :refreshable, "The provider can remount the filesystem.",
:methods => [:remount]

Bug #4904: mount type attempting remount when ensure => present
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4904
Author: John Warburton
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category:
Target version:
Affected version: 0.25.5
Keywords: mount remount tempfs
Branch:
I am on Solaris 10, with puppet 0.25.5, and trying to manage /tmp. Note that
/tmp can't be remounted on a live system
(http://wikis.sun.com/display/BigAdmin/Talking+about+RAM+disks+in+the+Solaris+OS)
Thats fine, I will use "ensure => present" which according to the documentation
" set to present to add to fstab but not change mount/unmount status"
mount{ "/tmp":
atboot => "yes",
device => "swap",
ensure => present,
pass => "-",
fstype => "tmpfs",
options => "size=4096m",
}
Changes /etc/vfstab as expected, but yields this error:
err: //solaris/Mount[/tmp]/ensure: change from mounted to present failed:
Execution of '/usr/sbin/umount /tmp' returned 1: umount: /tmp busy
notice: //solaris/Mount[/tmp]: Refreshing self
info: Mount[/tmp](provider=parsed): Remounting
err: //solaris/Mount[/tmp]: Failed to call refresh on Mount[/tmp]:
Execution of '/usr/sbin/umount /tmp' returned 1: umount: /tmp busy
My reading of the documentation is that the mount type shouldn't try to remount
with "ensure => present"
However, it seems as the provider is refreshable, that it overrides any other
setting
