Issue #4836 has been updated by Matthaus Litteken. Status changed from Needs Decision to Accepted
As this will change what is written to the file, and affect behavior of applications using those files, this should wait for telly. I don't see a status for "move changes into different branch", but i think that's about where this ticket is at. ---------------------------------------- Feature #4836: puppetd --disable improvements https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4836#change-56049 Author: micah - Status: Accepted Priority: Low Assignee: Matthaus Litteken Category: error reporting Target version: Telly Affected Puppet version: 0.25.5 Keywords: enabledisable Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/216 Occasionally I disable regular puppetd runs on a system by doing: <pre> # puppetd --disable </pre> This works fine, except that it could be improved in two ways: 1. If it has been manually disabled, then when a run is attempted, it should print something more useful than this: <pre> notice: Run of Puppet configuration client already in progress; skipping </pre> because well... that message isn't really true, its not in progress, rather it is currently disabled. 2. The something more useful that it could print could be either a default message "notice: Puppet administratively disabled on this system; skipping", or a custom message that you can pass to the puppetd --disable, eg. "puppetd --disable micah is fixing stunnel template" would then print the following when a puppetd was running: "notice: Puppet is administratively disabled because micah is fixing stunnel template; skipping run" -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
