I would probably do this with cron/rsync unless there is a very
pressing need to do it in puppet. However, to achieve this in puppet
you could create a function that checks to see if this file exists,
and transfers it if so. Something like:
define filecheck ($file) {
file { "$file":
owner => root, group => root, mode => 755,
ensure => file,
}
exec { "filecheck-$name":
command => "rsync $file u...@client2:/remote/file/path/",
require => [File["$name"]],
}
}
You would add that to the node definition for client 1. This assumes
you have key-based authentication set up between your clients. Btw, I
am not a puppet expert and quickly wrote this during my lunch-break
without testing, so it might not work as expected.
Cheers,
Mike
