True, I could try the file approach, the only drawback is that it would
take 1 Puppet run before the fact is defined, but the same would hold true
with the environment variable.
Thanks Henrik!

Hi Puppet users,
Is there any convenient way to access a variable defined in a Puppet class
from within a custom fact?
I'm trying to reuse a Puppet variable within a fact definition, but can't
find any way to look it up like I would do within an ERB template.
Example (fictional):

Hi Danny,
You should 'include' your main class (zabbix) before, or even inside your
sub-classes, else nothing tells you in which order they will be declared,
and apparently classes like zabbix::client::service DO require the
parameters set in your main class.
Something like that should work:
Does this actually work Nan??
Can somebody point me to any page where this is documented?

Hi teknotus,
I don't think that would work since you can not declare a Puppet resource
in Hiera, you are limited to core types.
In your case, Puppet would interpret File['somefile'] as a string, and
File: somefile as a hash, but will never translate that to a resource.
Cheers,
Toni

Unfortunately you can't. This is a restriction of Apache, which requires a
docroot value for every vhost, and not of Puppet.

Hi Matthew,
I also moved from PE to Puppet Open-Source. I actually got started with the

Hi Josh, hi all,
So, I have set the environment_timeout setting to a couple of test values,
including 30s, 1h and unlimited:
- *30s* - No performance boost. Too short for me, my Puppet runs are
distributed every 37s
- *1h* - Very good results, fast config retrieval, even slighly

This seems to work better indeed, although I can still observe a decrease
in performances. The config retrieval time is higher than with config-based
environments (9 sec
on obtaining the packages)

Hi Warden,
Exporting a file resource will not export its content, unless the content
is part of the resource (ie. using content = or source = ). By just
giving a path you will always end-up with an empty file.
I guess a better approach would be to maintain all files somewhere on your
