Has there been any movement on it since then? ---------------------------------------- Feature #13875: Allow specified UIDs to be excluded from purge https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13875#change-89278 * Author: Jeff Weiss * Status: Needs Decision * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Daniel Pittman * Category: * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- >From barttenbrinke: Currently there are only two options for user management: purge => true or purge => false. Purge true works great if all your apps are deployed via puppet, but when you have a mix of puppet system uids and application uids, you are forced to turn purge off. This has the undesired side-effect that users that are managed through puppet will never revoked for the servers that have purge disabled. At our company Devops deploys the servers & frameworks using Puppet so that Devs can take over and deploy applications on their own. Each of these application runs under its own uid. For this reason we have to run with purge => false, which is something we don't want. The only option available to alter this behavior is "unless_system_user => true", but this just protects users with a UID < 500 and that is not where I want to have my application UIDs. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
