Issue #5239 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Status changed from Unreviewed to Needs more information Assignee set to Nigel Kersten
I find myself undecided on this one. Anyone care to take it to the community lists and see if we can reach some consensus? I have a nagging feeling there are a bunch of unknown use cases this would affect. ---------------------------------------- Bug #5239: Exported resources are hard to collect by environment https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5239 Author: Jordan Sissel Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten 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.
