I'm using puppet 0.25.1.  I've got a simple resource:

exec { "/bin/ls $oracle_base/dba/bin/database_backup.ksh":
    logoutput => on_failure,
}

and I don't want it to log every time it's successfully run:

$ sudo tail -F /var/log/messages | grep puppetd
Feb 17 16:36:11 test puppetd[26614]: (//my_module/Exec[/bin/ls /u01/
app/oracle/dba/bin/database_backup.ksh]/returns) executed successfully

but logoutput => on_failure doesn't suppress the above message.

Is that parameter not available in my version of puppet, or am I
perhaps misunderstanding its purpose?  I'm guessing the latter since
it looks like it was introduced 3 years ago.

In the meantime, I'm using this ugly, redundant hack to do what I
want:

exec { "/bin/ls $oracle_base/dba/bin/database_backup.ksh":
    unless => "/bin/ls $oracle_base/dba/bin/database_backup.ksh",
}

Thanks!
