You could use $::operatingsystem only. But you want to be sure that you also
refer to CentOS.
I assume you want to net these two case conditionals:
case $::operatingsystem {
'CentOS': (
case $::operatingsystemrelease {
'5.0': {
...
}
'6.2': {
...
}
default: {
...
}
}
'Debian': {
...
}
default: {
...
}
}
Also take a look on the documentation:
