Issue #10540 has been updated by Kelsey Hightower.
Now that I am thinking about this, can you use [run stages](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/language_guide.html#run-stages) to solve your problem? What if you made a 'puppet' module, which was include by all your nodes, that ensures that all nodes run with a certain version of Puppet and any other required configurations. Then use puppet run stages to ensure that all the resources in your puppet module run first. In site.pp stage{'first': before => Stage['main']} class { 'puppet': stage => first; } node 'node.testing.com' { include puppet } Not sure if I'm on the right track with this, I just thought I would throw this out there. ---------------------------------------- Feature #10540: Allow simplified configuration to upgrade older clients. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10540 Author: Jo Rhett Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Kelsey Hightower Category: Target version: 2.6.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: we are having problems with incompatibility between older clients and newer configuration syntax. (in specific, user resource system attribute was added somewhere between 2.6.6 and 2.6.11) It seems the right thing to do for older clients when they attach is to give them a very short manifest that immediately upgrades them. I'm trying to figure out how to do this. I want something like this at the top of site.pp if $puppetversion == '2.6.6' { class { upgradepuppet: } stop-parsing-here } I'd rather avoid putting all the rest of site.pp inside an else statement if I can. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
