By Googling a bit, and reading some old stuff from the list, I got the
impression that it might be possible to just collect all those resources
without problems. So I set up a simple test case:
class testexport {
@@file {"/tmp/blub":
content => "fiep\n",
}
}
class testcollect {
File <<| tag == "testexport" |>>
}
node serverA {
include testexport
}
node serverB {
include testexport
}
node serverC {
include testcollect
}
As expected, on serverC, this leads to the following error:
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
Exported resource File[/tmp/blub] cannot override local resource on node
serverC
Is there a way around this?
