Issue #3170 has been updated by Michael Stahnke.

Description updated
Status changed from Unreviewed to Closed

I am unable to reproduce this behavior in 2.7.9 on Centos5.

    drwxrwxrwt   4 root root  4096 Jan 21 09:36 tmp

    file { "/tmp": mode => 1777, checksum => mtime, }
    [root@centos tests]# puppet apply --debug --verbose foo.pp  | grep tmp

Feature #3170: Please re-introduce checksum => nosum for file resources
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3170

According to #558, there used to be a 'nosum' option for the file resource. We 
have a lot of resource defined like this:

{{{
file { "/tmp":
  mode => 1777,
}
}}}

Currently, for each of these resources it calculates the checksum every puppet 
run. It would be convenient for us if it only checks the directory mode or 
other specifically set options, but not the checksum. Saves a lot of time and 
output we don't need. I think more people would find this convenient.

Also, currently the documentation seems to hint that it's possible to disable 
checksumming (it uses the phrase "The default checksum parameter, if checksums 
are enabled, is md5.").
