Doesn't look like there is a "Dir.exists" but "File.exists" appears to
be working for directory as well. And there is a "File.directory",
which works as well.
Two ways of run a check for directories:

if File.exists?(d_path) && File.directory?(d_path)
or
if File.directory?(d_path)

One thing is: if the directory doesn't exist, I se this error on the
client:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER: Failed to parse template w_nodes/mom_priv-config.tpl: Could
not find value for 'num_core' at /etc/puppet/modules/w_nodes/manifests/
init.pp:42 on node myserv.ac.uk


I do understand the meaning but is it normal? I thought if the above
directory doesn't exist, it'll simple skip the rest. cheers!!
