Hey Justin, Interesting stuff. I just deployed a consul cluster for the purpose of DNS - and we haven't yet used the key/value store or the hiera backend. This is less of a question on your gem, but more on your use case that I'm interested in. When you say you automatically push values to

I'm trying to wrap my head around how you would use puppet to upgrade agents. Maybe my assumptions on how this 'should' work are wrong. I just migrated a puppet agent from a 2015.2.3 master to a 2016.1.1 master. I signed the cert on the new master and no dice on the upgrade. The

[Puppet Users] look up hiera hash's subkey within yaml

2016-03-22 Thread Brett Swift
This is a bit nutty, but hopefully there's a way to do this. So far I have only been able to get the parent hash, not the nested one. The reason I don't want to do this in a manifest, is because I'd like to use pieces of this hash within hiera itself. This gist is what I'm trying to do:

[Puppet Users] Monitoring & SDLC + Big Vendor apps. Anyone?

As an app developer turned puppeteer / sysadmin, I'm a huge advocate of bringing the SDLC to operations. *Question*: Who has accomplished this with big vendory monitoring tools - like App Dynamics, New Relic etc. Anyone? I've accomplished this while exploring Sensu. (Shameless plug:

I've found the time to deliver a multiple hiera backend for our ops guys, and I'm seeing some weird behaviour. With a single backend, it works great - add host level configs in the host hierarchy, and common stuff in what we had a 'role' hierarchy. I have since split the backends, so there is

I'm trying to get a useful tool for our operations guys, to give them some transparency on compiled values for a node. The theory is they could put their hieradata code in on a feature branch, and I could give them a report of all the values that would go into that node, and also show values

This one is kind of frustrating.The only difference between these two servers is that the VM template used is different. The unfortunate thing is, I'm not sure what the differences are. Both Puppet Masters were bootstrapped the same way - in an automated fashion. Both are RHEL 6.4.
