Feature #13220: option to ignore remote filebucket failures, or treat as
non-blocking errors

Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.12
Keywords: filebucket
Branch:
Currently, with file bucketing to the master enabled, i.e. in site.pp like:
filebucket { "main": server => "puppet", path => false }
File { backup => "main" }
A failure to write to the filebucket causes the File resource content change on
the node to fail. This prevents a configuration which would otherwise be
capable of being run masterless via 'puppet apply' from being run in this way.
My specific case in point - all of my configs are stored in SVN, and our
puppetmaster is configured with Puppet. Our DR plan for the master is to
install the puppet-server RPM and dependencies, check out SVN to /etc/puppet,
and "puppet apply" site.pp. Unfortunately, as the master isn't up and running
yet, the filebucket backup operation returns "Connection refused"... and
there's no way to get the master up and running for the filebucket to succeed
(aside from manually modifying the working copy of the configs, which is far
from ideal).
So, I propose either:
1. Add a setting to puppet.conf, or the File or Filebucket resources, to make
remote filebucket backups a best-effort operation, and warn (but don't error
out) if they fail (for cases where getting the config pushed is more important
than getting backups).
or
2. Adding a --nofilebucket flag to 'puppet apply' which will either do the
above, or altogether prevent remote filebucket backups.
