I assume your thinking ran "audit content, should be fine", then "wait, if you set source, content is empty", or something like that?

Yeah. So, we have an increasingly long string of use cases where that isn't really desirable: we actually want to verify (eg: equivalent of noop) audit, because we have people pressing to effectively use this to provide a human approval between "is it in sync?" and "make it be in sync". Possibly without ever hitting the last phase. ---------------------------------------- Bug #8418: What should puppet auditing do when asked to audit parameters? https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8418 Author: Nigel Kersten Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 2.6.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: <pre> file { "/etc/ssh/ssh_config": ensure => file, source => "puppet:///modules/base/ssh_config", audit => all, } root@debian5-1:~# puppet inspect err: /Stage[main]/Base/File[/etc/ssh/ssh_config]: Could not inspect File[/etc/ssh/ssh_config]; skipping: Could not retrieve information from source(s) puppet:///modules/base/ssh_config at /etc/puppet/env/dev/modules/base/manifests/init.pp:35 </pre> We shouldn't be auditing parameters, only properties. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
