As the complexity of our $workplace puppet configuration grows, I am
increasingly worried that puppet gives us very limited visibility over
resources it no longer manages.
In practical terms: if I mess up my class include/require/inherit
structure so that a node A no longer indirectly includes module Foo,
resources managed by Foo are present in A but "orphaned".
This is a lurking gotcha; and it can lead to subtle problems..
Is there any tool that helps here, for example keeping a manifest of all
resources ever managed by this puppet install? If not, I will probably
try build that into ppg.
Is there a way to ask puppet for a fuller, more explicit report of all
resources tracked during a run?
Thanks,
One way of doing this is to use rspec puppet and write specs for
the base line - "these things should be in the catalog", then run those
tests as part of development to ensure that things that should be in the
catalog are not accidentally dropped as you refactor or make other changes.
