I was kind of wondering about that, when I saw it earlier. It appears that
maybe the cloudstack_resources module has become out of date? I think you
are the preparer of a slide-show I was following here:
http://www.slideshare.net/PuppetLabs/cloudstack-18489665
It seems like in those slides, Group was being used to hold the roles? This
is why I assumed that was OK. I was doing something like
case $::role {
'db': {
notify {"detected a fact named role with value db"
:}
}
}
because I thought that the custom fact here:
https://github.com/jasonhancock/puppet-facts/blob/master/cloudstack_userdata.rb
Turned the cloudstack userdata into a fact where if you had
"role=db,foo=bar" you would get two custom facts, role and foo, with their
respective values.
May I ask for some clarity if that is not the intended usage?
In my case, obviously cloudstack_userdata is not generating the correct
facts, because the wget that is in that code returns nothing because
userdata is empty.
Thanks,
