Greetings,
I have a class for which I would like to simply print a few parameters
about a node, before actually running any additional modules on the client
itself. The problem I'm seeing is that after making changes to the class,
I don't see them being propagated to the puppet client. Occasionally if I
restart puppet services on both client and master, the changes will get
pulled down. In other occasions, after a certain amount of time, the
changes will just magically appear to get pulled down by the client. Does
anybody know why this may be occurring? It's driving me mad.
I have a vanilla puppet client running puppet 3.6.2 and a puppet master
running version 3.6.2. and both have been recently built.
*Site.pp:*
# test node
node seanconnery-01 {
include role
}
class role {
include profile::base
}
class profile::base {
include sys_ident
}
*sys_ident/init.pp*
class sys_ident {
notify { 'system hostname':
withpath => true,
name => "my fqdn is $fqdn",
}
notify {'network location':
withpath => true,
name => "my network is ${network}",
}
}
*Upon running the client, I get the expected output:*
seanconnery-01:~$ sudo puppet agent -tv
Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts in /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/network.rb
Info: Caching catalog for seanconnery-01.domain

seanconnery-01.domain
Notice: /Stage[main]/Sys_ident/Notify[system hostname]/message: defined
'message' as 'my fqdn is seanconnery-01.domain
Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.04 seconds
*However, if I add another notify to the sys_ident/init.pp like so:*
class sys_ident {
notify { 'system hostname':
withpath => true,
name => "my fqdn is $fqdn",
}
notify {'network location':
withpath => true,
name => "my network is ${network}",
}
notify {'swapfree':
withpath => true,
name => "my swap is ${swapfree}",
}
}
*I get the following on my client:*
seanconnery-01:~$ sudo puppet agent -tv
Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts in /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/network.rb
Info: Caching catalog for seanconnery-01.domain
Info: Applying configuration version '1409858679'
Notice: /Stage[main]/Sys_ident/Notify[network location]/message: my network

'message' as 'my network is greenzone'
Notice: /Stage[main]/Sys_ident/Notify[system hostname]/message: my fqdn is
seanconnery-01.domain'
Notice: /Stage[main]/Sys_ident/Notify[system hostname]/message: defined
'message' as 'my fqdn is seanconnery-01.domain'
Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.04 seconds
After a certain amount of undetermined time, the client will finally pickup
the changes but there's no rhyme or reason to it.
Has anybody else ever seen this behavior? I can't for the life of me
figure it out.
As always, your help is much appreciated.
