Effectively only facts and exported resources are stored for each node[1]. This is opposed to storing the complete set of resources (and other stuff?) for each node. For normal puppet usage there's no loss to using thin_storeconfigs. The full set is useful if you want to query it as part of an external process. A monitoring or inventory service, for example. Bryce F did most of the work that actually made storeconfigs useful. There are some very good posts on his blog[2].

Using a cron resource with fqdn_rand() interval works pretty well and is dead simple. cron { puppet_agent: command => 'puppet agent -- onetime', minute => [fqdn_rand(30), (fqdn_rand(30) + 30)] } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
