If I have a network monitoring machine in a "production" environment, I don't see why puppet should make it impossible for me to collect information from machines in "development" or "testing" environments telling it what to monitor. It should, however, be easy for the collector to specify which environments it is interested in. ---------------------------------------- Bug #5239: Exported resources are hard to collect by environment https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5239 Author: Jordan Sissel Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2 Keywords: exported resources collection environments Branch: I noticed today that Foo <<| |>> collects all Foo resources regardless of environment. Doing Foo <<| environment == ... |>> would be cool, but I don't think that works. Why was this a problem? I have multiple deployments; some of which cannot see each other on the network (outside of the storeconfigs db). As a result of this behavior (collect all resources in all environments), I have nagios instances that try to monitor machines they can't see and thus all checks fail and pager goes beep beep. ;) I found a work around using tags. <pre> node default { # Globally apply an environment-based tag to all resources on each node. tag("deployment::$environment") ... } # And later ... SomeResource <<| tag == "deployment::$environment" |>> </pre> The above workaround is sufficient for me to continue deploying exported resources (not a blocker). I was expecting collectors of exported resources would only, by default, get resources from the same environment. Barring that, I think a query of <<| environment == ... |>> would be quite useful rather than resorting to tagging. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
