Status changed from Accepted to Merged - Pending Release

Addressed in commit 64cb36f

----------------------------------------
Bug #6936: AIX user provider fails if a gid is specified instead of a name.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6936#change-89593

* Author: Parker Johnson
* Status: Merged - Pending Release
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Category: provider
* Target version: 
* Affected Puppet version: development
* Keywords: AIX user provider puppet gid
* Branch: 
----------------------------------------
Several AIX providers (aixobject/user/group) were merged into the code a couple 
days ago.  I just checked out from source and gave it a try on an AIX6.1 TL4 
host.  Most of it works (thank you! psyched to see puppet and AIX play nice), 
but if you specify a gid instead of a group name, the manifest errors.  See 
below.  I'll be happy to re-test if yall have a hard time finding an AIX host. 
:)

<pre>

[root@sfcloudap001 puppet]# cat modules/test/manifests/init.pp 
class test {

  group{'test_g':
    ensure => present,
    gid => 6969,
  }

  user{'test_u':
    ensure => present,
    uid => 99,
    gid => 6969,
    home => "/tmp/",
  }
}


[root@autobuild /]# puppet agent --test
