Issue #8417 has been updated by Deepak Giridharagopal.
This still happens under puppetdb. I actually have always considered this a valid thing, FWIW. I assumed that --noop mode meant that the catalog is still accurate, but it's application on the local system is side-effect free. However, the presence of storeconfigs means that in order to compile your catalogs, you need to be persisting them centrally even in the noop case. Otherwise your catalogs may not be accurate or have the latest data. Also, we've used this "feature" as a way to help users migrate to PuppetDB. You switch to PuppetDB, then trigger a noop run across your infrastructure (or just wait for machines to check in). Then PuppetDB will be fully populated automatically with the latest data. Zero users have complained about this behavior to me, and in fact many of them seem to expect it (like they've asked me if that will still work). ---------------------------------------- Bug #8417: Exported resources is exporting to the database with --noop flag https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8417#change-67269 Author: Andrew Thompson Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Deepak Giridharagopal Category: exported resources Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.4 Keywords: ntbf Branch: When I run puppet with the noop flag resources are being exported to the db. I would expect it to simulate the transaction with the db... This is causing things like nagios host resources being creating before the plugins get there, so I get invalid alerts. -Andrew -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
