I do, because I want to be able to watch the collections happen on the `--noop` runs as well. When I make a change in my staging manifests, I want to be able to do `--noop -t` on all machines and actually watch all dominoes fall. I need to be able to verify that resources would be *correctly* exported, essentially. I just want that to happen in a separate database (even one on the same server with the same user is fine with me right now!). My staging `--noop` runs are a critical mechanism for reviewing diffs before pushing changes live. The closer I can get them to a separate but accurate mimicry of production, the better! ---------------------------------------- Bug #7497: I would like separate dbnames for staging and production runs. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7497 Author: Nick Moffitt Status: Needs More Information Priority: High Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: stored configuration Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.4 Keywords: Branch: I have a database for stored configurations, and all my puppeteers (puppetmasters local to a network segment) have access to speak to that database. When I do my staging runs --noop, however, resources are exported that get collected by production runs. This kind of pollution is extremely dangerous, as stored configurations are the only mechanism we currently have for nodes to communicate configuration status to other nodes. It is highly terrifying to see a front-end server start serving requests to a back-end server that only ever went through a --noop configuration run. I tried putting a "dbname = staging" in my [staging] stanza, but it appears that I can't have different environments speaking to different databases (even on the same server!). It would be extremely helpful if this were possible. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
