Released in Puppet 3.2.0-rc1 ---------------------------------------- Bug #1453: removing a cron parameter does not change the object https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1453#change-89516 * Author: Martha Greenberg * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Charlie Sharpsteen * Category: cron * Target version: 3.2.0 * Affected Puppet version: 0.24.5 * Keywords: cron * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1570 ---------------------------------------- If you remove a parameter from a cron object, it should change the cron job to have * in that field. However, puppet does not change it unless you specify "*". <pre> # cat /tmp/1.pp cron { "test": command => "/bin/echo test", hour => "4", minute => "3", } # puppet -v /tmp/1.pp notice: //Cron[test]/ensure: created # cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall. # (- installed on Sun Jul 27 23:45:24 2008) # (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 2.13 1994/01/17 03:20:37 vixie Exp $) # HEADER: This file was autogenerated at Sun Jul 27 23:45:24 +0300 2008 by puppet. # HEADER: While it can still be managed manually, it is definitely not recommended. # HEADER: Note particularly that the comments starting with 'Puppet Name' should# HEADER: not be deleted, as doing so could cause duplicate cron jobs. # Puppet Name: test 3 4 * * * /bin/echo test # cat /tmp/2.pp cron { "test": command => "/bin/echo test", minute => "5", } # puppet -v /tmp/2.pp notice: //Cron[test]/minute: minute changed '3' to '5' # cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall. # (- installed on Sun Jul 27 23:51:11 2008) # (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 2.13 1994/01/17 03:20:37 vixie Exp $) # HEADER: This file was autogenerated at Sun Jul 27 23:51:11 +0300 2008 by puppet. # HEADER: While it can still be managed manually, it is definitely not recommended. # HEADER: Note particularly that the comments starting with 'Puppet Name' should# HEADER: not be deleted, as doing so could cause duplicate cron jobs. # Puppet Name: test 5 4 * * * /bin/echo test </pre> Notice that hour is still set to 4, not *! -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
