Issue #5692 has been updated by Brice Figureau.
To my knowledge the state file and catalog cache is already atomically written (I might be wrong, I didn't really check). The last summary was also atomic at one time, but I think my patch was reverted, so we might have lost this behavior. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5692: Internally-generated state files should be written in an atomic way https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5692#change-82634 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Investigating Priority: Immediate Assignee: eric sorenson Category: Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: 2.6.4 Keywords: mcollective backlog Branch: External tools like mcollective that read classes.txt require it to be written using an atomic operation to prevent concurrency issues where the file when read might have only half the classes in it. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
