Re: [Puppet Users] file resource calling a 'define'd exec syntax?

Hello First up the file type supports selinux roles etc so you might not need any of that. If you did make the exec resource refreshonly and notify it from the file resource. Anyway the parser is right the syntax is bad. Inside the curly its always like type{'name': var = value, Followed by more

When you deploy a vm from the template give it a host name. Then first puppet run will make a new cert. Set puppet master to autosign and you are in business Neil On 29 Nov 2013 12:09, kaustubh chaudhari kaustu...@gmail.com wrote: Hi All, Fairly new to puppet! I wanted to include puppet

Re: [Puppet Users] How to apply a set of configurations to a specific host group?

Hello I think you'd probably be best served by using a sql backend to hiera. this would allow you to think and configure in terms of host groups but hiera to find that a host has a class of group. A view or two might be needed to keep things tidy. Neil On 23 Apr 2014 21:42, Sans

Re: [Puppet Users] Manage a single file (directory) from multiple modules

Hello I do not think that is possible or really desirable. Puppet is about desired state so you can not say the directory should both be /pathtodir ├── fileA └── fileB and /tmp should be /pathtodir ├── fileB └── fileC as the first says must not have fileC and the second says must have fileC.

Re: [Puppet Users] A case for git (SVN vs Git)

Hello With git I can commit branch etc and test on VMs all on my laptop with no internet access. So features come one at a time when I get back online and push. When I had svn a lot of features would just appear in a single commit. Horrid. Not 100% joking If your organisation is big enough

Re: [Puppet Users] Wanna see something scary ?

Their use of hiera_include is spaghetti codish and horrid. But a lot of puppet code is. For a framework to be flexible enough without supporting such horrors is seemingly impossible. You are right to be concerned. If it were me I'd redo them as puppet classes and see if that looks better. I'm not
